I just wrote a piece on the Riversplash Festival that i attended in Milwaukee that is also taking place this weekend. Another Festival that I have never attended but have read and heard about is the Rose Festival in Portland Oregon. I do plan on attending one of these days maybe next year if My wife can get off work.

The Festivities take place at Water front park, right in Portland, and this year marks its 101st anniversary. Here is a rundown of the Rose events:
* Starlight run is Saturday May 31, 2008 at 8pm.
* Starlight parade is downtown at 8:30 pm Saturday May 31, 2008.
* Junior parade is in the Hollywood district Wednesday June 4, 2008 at 1 pm.
* The Grand Floral parade is Saturday June 7, 2008 Memorial Coliseum to downtown Portland.
