Another wonderful Francisco's Farm Art Festival with beautiful weather at a beautiful site. Woodford County EMS kept everyone safe from the heat. Gone now are the Artists, the white tents from the vineyard, and much of the grass from the lanes in the new 11 eleven parking field. Remaining is the cool drive along Moores Mill Road, the vines and the wine. I suggest bring a picnic lunch, a couple of comfortable chairs and enough time to set in the shade by the old mill dam.
