Lilac festival

Today we went to the lilac festival. It was really fun! We walked through forest, fields, and paths. We went into the garden surrounded by battlemented walls that looked like a castle that was called the rock garden. We saw the reservoir and next to it was a very fat groundhog. We saw only three blooming Rhododendrons, but we are going back to Highland park in a week or two to see them budding. We got cotton candy and funnel cake, which we almost never do at festivals, so it was special. We got pretty thirsty, so I suggest that if you all ever go, bring something to drink! We took or family photo for Christmas, and saw my favorite part, the tulips. They're so pretty! I was in a big picture taking mood, so I actually took this picture of a white lilac. So it's a bona-fide lilac from the bona-fide park. I hope any of you that go have as wonderful a time as I have, Lucie
