Red Flannel Warm

Welcome to the underwear capital of the world. We like our underwear so much we throw a party in it’s honor every October. This was the 70th time this celebration has been thrown and it was fabulous- even with a bit of rain. My kids loved the festivities and especially the food. Take a stroll down Main Street and stop in to a booth for an elephant ear. There is nothing quite as welcoming as a small town festival. It is Red Flannel Day- enjoy and stay warm.

Everyone had to be prepared for the elements but the Rotary Chicken didn’t seem to mind.
