Reminder: Fort Myers Beach 1st Annual Art and Pumpkin Festival this Weekend
October 22, 2009

This is just a quick reminder that this weekend, Oct. 23-24, 2009, is the 1st Annual Art and Pumpkin Festival on Fortt Myers Beach. I'm super excited about it because I've been asked to be a judge at their pumpkin-carving contest! Come on out and meet me and my family at this two-day event filled with fun.

In addition to the pumpkin-carving contest, there will be pirate boat rides, a kids' zone, great food, cold drinks, pie-eating and apple-bobbing contests, costume contests for kids and even pets, live music by Weathered Souls, the Battle of the Bands winner in 2008, and a whole lot more.

For more info, log on to the festival website. I'll be taping all the excitement with my new Kodak Zx1 video camera so stay tuned. I hope to see you there!
