Lilac Festival

Have you ever been to the Lilac Festival on Mackinac Island?! It's an event not to be missed! Just imagine ... everyone on the island and tourists from far away (such as me!) for ten whole days in spring gets together to celebrate the most beautiful, fragrant flowers (and my favorites) of all ... lilacs! This year, I was lucky enough to be visiting Mackinac Island in time to catch the tail-end of the festival. Better late than never! :O)

Just to give you an idea of what the Lilac Festival was all about, here's a schedule of events (in PDF) for the Lilac Festival this year (June 9-19, 2006)! Hope you'll get to see it next year!
