    Street side parking was full for blocks. I parked quite a ways from the festival. I am sorry you weren't able to find a closer parking spot, Jeremy.

    I went by car but there was no parking. I'm in a wheelchair and can't drive. I had brain cancer. My aid chose not to do the long walk. The festival itself looked very exciting.
