, and although this was a calendar for last year's events, it gives me a better idea of what to expect and what to put on the schedule. Already I see I'm going to have to get up nice and early on Friday to hit that Farmers' Market, I can scratch off yet another day of being a sleepy head. There's just so much to do!
