I'm thinking about it. I may see about getting a table there for VB. I'm not sure how much it costs or what we'd do at said table but still. If I do get a table I'd like to have people to hang out with or to watch it while I wander around.

I plan on being there, most likely on the Saturday. Going to attempt to bring a family member or two. Should be fun!

I'd really like to go, so if I'm awake for it, I'll probably be there (especially because it's pretty close). Just look for the spiky black mohawk.




MOON BOUNCE! (if they tell me it's only for kids, so help me...)

I went today, but ran out of things to do. I might go again tomorrow, but I'm not really sure about that.

I was there, also. I took a few pics, bought some veg chicken and rice, got some free samples.... I might go again tomorrow (today), but I dunno. Mercy for Animals had some cool shirts, I should have bought one.

HB and I went. It was great!! HB's not really into the whole sprituality thing but he came to the presentation by Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj with me anyways and even came to the meditation tent with me. There was about 10 of us meditating (or trying to) at the time and we were only in there for about 15 minutes and I was so grateful that he even tried those things with me but when we left he said this "Babe, I tried meditating...really I did but all I could think about (when my eyes were closed) were those 20/20 and Dateline shows and I had to open my eyes to make sure no one was stealing anything from your purse!!" :lol:

He tried a bunch of the food too but I was pretty bummed because I didn't think the food selection was that great. I was really looking forward to WOWing him with the great veggie food!! They didn't even FALAFEL....that oughtta be a crime at a VeggieFest!! We had the "chicken" and rice but neither one of us really enjoy Indian flavors and we both thought that Morningstar had better flavored and textured "chicken".
I tried a vegdog...AGAIN :spew: I really wish I could find a DECENT veggie dog some day.

All in all it was a good day and we really enjoyed it!!
