UFO Fest is held in Mcminnville, OR
The events cover Friday (13) and Saturday (14). Carol invited me to go with her, her mother, and her brother, but the family couldn't make it. I invited Jeff since we had the tickets. Our aim was to go Saturday and make a full day of it, but we didn't get there till 1:30. We're bad at waking up and getting moving. XP So, we get the tail-end of the parade and missed the first speaker. The second speaker was just an over-glorified name-dropper and was hella boring. I wanted to see the pet parade, but we missed it. :( Ah wells, next year we are going to try and go and be ready in the morning with costumes! It was hella fun even though we pretty much missed everything. Just randomly walking around watching all the people, seeing the crazy costumes, and exploring the town. UFO fest is put on by Mcmenamins and their hotel there was pretty grand. It had pretty pictures and a rooftop bar! Jeff bought Carol and I drinks. We also found this fancy-looking cafe-restaurant that served us some DELICIOUS drinks. I don't remember the name, but it was on 3rd street. *nod* There was this crazy old guy in this amazing yellow alien outfit, but Jeff missed getting a pic of him. We saw him later without his hood/head bit on, and he STILL looked crazy. All fluffy white hair and old. He was amazing! ^_^
