St. Helen's or bust
WOW! We drove about 45 minutes on Saturday to the town of St. Helen's for their Arts & Eats Festival. It was a bust! The day was perfect - about 80 degrees but the festival was lacking something. We looked at ALL of the art on display in less than 5-minutes and made our way to the liquor tent next to the Columbia river. The cow had a beer and I had a glass of Syrian or Lebanese wine? Don't ask? I was there and can't explain why.
There was a trio playing music at the ampitheater and they were competing with the damn loud horn from the large river boat you see in the first picture. It got very annoying - I think they were allowing every Tom, Dick and Harry to pull the string for the loud BEEEEEEEEEEEEP.
Some of the boats that came into port for the festival were quite interesting though. We enjoyed the sunshine for awhile and drove to the Northwest to have a snack. It turned into a LONG evening on NW21 drinking at Brazen Bean and eating sushi because we knew we needed something in our stomach.
