California's Annual Poppy Festival


This past weekend Lancaster, CA held the California Poppy Festival for the 19th time I think. It was April 24-25 in Lancaster City Park. The Festival was HUGE and filled with great music, food, arts, and a lot of fun celebrating the state flower of California and the appearance of poppies in the Antelope Valley. I went to this festival on sunday and it was pretty fun. We, my family and I, went on rides in the kids area and strolled around the arts and crafts area where really creative people showed their creations. There were even dog training shows, dog herding shows, and wild animal shows. Personally, I was mainly interested in one of the booths that was selling all kinds of sages and herbs and crystals. I had a looong talk with the booth man about them and which ones the best for what mood your in and which ones are best for burning (I like to burn things). Sooo yeah. Next year you people should go cause also the poppy fields in the Antelope Valley are beautiful and filled with orange. It looks like orange rivers flowing through the mountains from far away.
