Lots going on this weekend so get out of the house and do some riding and driving around to attend one of the following:
Of course the biggie is the County Fair up Leonardtown way and I mention that only so you know not to drive around there and avoid the area completely. As you can tell, I’m not a big County Fair fan after serving time there for many, many years with my kids on rainy Fridays. (Yes, it really did ALWAYS rain on that school holiday/Friday Fair day.)
On the other end of the spectrum however, there is the very worthwhile River Fest being held at St. Mary’s City. The event is sponsored by the St. Mary’s River Watershed Association who have a very nice website worth checking out (click here.)

If nothing else, go by and check out the St. Mary’s City Museum which is usually a $10 admission charge but Saturday is free. I’ve had several folks in Buzzy’s Country Store talk about what a great museum it is so go check it out for free today and then plan a future, return visit to spend some more time there.
And speaking of St. Mary’s City, Sunday Trinity Church is holding a drive thru chicken dinner 11 – 3.
But THE event of the weekend will be going down at Buzzy’s Country Store Saturday around 3 p.m. when a bus load of folks will visit to celebrate Bernie Trossbach’s birthday. I nicked the following photo from her FB page:

A highlight at the RiverFest features another Bernie as in Bernie Fowler wading into the river to see how far he can get before he can’t see his feet (1:00 mark in following 2010 video:)
