If there’s one day every year that’s “Wallingford Day”, that would be today. Here’s the line up:
10 to 4: Seattle Tilth’s Chicken Coop & Urban Farm Tour. If you’re at all interested in bees, goats, chickens, or just seeing cool stuff people build in their yards, this is a great event. I’ve been on the tour twice and gone on the tour twice. I’m always bummed when they schedule it the same day as the Wallingford parade / Mike Carton Derby.
11 to 12: The parade, followed by the festival-ish.
12 to 4: Pharmaca (a sponsor) is having a post-parade event with lots of girly perks like facials, makeovers, massages, and lotions. Be careful not to overdose.
9 to 3: Milk Carton Derby at Green Lake, where the good bits seem to be from 1:15 (parade of boats) through to 2:45 or so (end of final races)
I’m off to go stand in front of a barricade. Jordan is continuing to fix what he broke with the redesign, please pile onto that thread with love, hate, and bugs.
