This is the weekend for the Old Pecan Street Festival in downtown Austin. The festival will be on the streets between 5th and 7th from IH 35 to San Jacinto with arts and crafts, food, and entertainment booths all along the streets. It is a great fun family event. I remember last year seeing folks walking along with their dogs and looking at the different items on display for sale. There are all kinds of items for purchase so bring your money. My favorite thing is to walk around and sample the different foods. Some of the ones that I will be sure not to miss are the funnel cakes, kettle corn and the roasted corn on the cob. The festival is being held May 2 from 11am - 10pm and May 3 from 11am to 8pm. Come on out and join me in enjoying this great Austin tradition.
