Did you go to Bates this year? We tried to go yesterday, and wow. I had never seen it so crowded! It was bumper to bumper after we turned onto the street, and there so many cars in the parking lot/surrounding fields. The lines of people were overwhelming, so we just turned around and left, since it was only an hour til closing. Wondering if it was just a fluke or what. I swear we've gone on weekends before, and it has never been *that* crowded.
Re: :: EMT::
We went the first weekend in October (like 10/3 or something). It was nuts. Not as fun with all those people. Last year we went during the week because that was when Jon was out of work
...much better.
It's almost not fun anymore.
