Kennett Square Festival 2025


On October 4, Melissa and I drove up to Mike and Jinny's house in Kennett Square. We had lunch, then the ladies dropped Mike and me at the festival just after 2:00. He and I stayed together for most of the 3 hours we were there, although he went off on his own for a while to say hi to his friend Frank, who was the drummer in the band.
