The Good Life ~ Sacramento
Exploring a City with a Small-Town Feel and World of PotentialArchive for Delta
Street-Fair Flair
So this weekend we’ll all be green with envy for those with Irish blood, or at least those able to celebrate the festive holiday, right? Whether it’s the Beer Bust this Thursday evening at Downtown Plaza, Keri Carr live at The Torch on Friday, ye Old Sacramento St. Patrick’s Day Parade this Saturday, or the St. Patrick’s Day K Street Krawl on Sunday, it promises to be a shamrockin’ good time.
But it’s not too early to plan for the following weekend – maybe a tiny trek out of town for a little festival flavor a la the California Delta?! I suggest you try the The Blue Moon French Quarter Street Fair in Downtown Stockton March 22 from 4-8pm. It’s a street fair with some New Orleans flair – including food booths with Cajun and French cuisines, live jazz bands, strolling entertainers, beads, masks and a “hurricane” of a good time. VIP Packages are $31 for 2 admissions, 2 food vouchers, 2 hurricane drinks with souvenir cups, and a $5 food pass, or General Admission is $6. http://downtownstockton.org/stockton_events_french_quarter.php
Don’t miss your chance to immerse in these rich cultural creations. It’s what life’s all about!
Taste, Sip, Song of the Delta
Is it just me or is there a lot going on July 16th?! If I could be several places at one time, one of those places would be ‘Taste of the Delta’ festival going on at Windmill Cove Resort & Marina just outside of Stockton. Local Delta wines and appetizers will be served, along with live music and more from 1-4PM. Tickets are still a steal at only $25 (but they jump to $35 at the door for late-risers and commitment-phobes).
Just because I have three other things on the calendar that day doesn’t mean I’m giving up just yet. Wine, food, water and Delta breezes are a pretty irresistable combination!
