A great crowd at the 149th Strawberry Festival at St. Paul's Episcopal Church. The strawberry festival started in 1866 and has been a tradition at the 300 year old church for a century and a half (the history of the church is fascinating).
This time around there was a lot food, bounce houses, a pony rides on a beautiful (and hot) summer day -- perfect for enjoying strawberries. A gallery from the day is after the break:

Don't believe me? You can check for yourself tomorrow at the 149th Annual Strawberry Festival at St. Paul's Episcopal Church (i.e. the church in Rock Creek Cemetery). 149 years equals a lot of strawberries.
It promises to be a great time for families and kids of all ages and sizes. There will be food, music, pony rides, arts and crafts, a moon bounce, field games and even a climbing wall.
Plus, the ever-popular tours of historic Rock Creek Cemetery.
Oh, and there will be strawberries.
