One of our favorite weekends of the summer is always Folks Fest, held right here in Lyons during August. This year we got free 3-day passes because I am a new resident of Lyons and went to a Chamber of Commerce meeting. (Thanks Corrie for going with me!) We were so excited that our friends, the Nelsons, came up for one of the days. We found a great spot and stayed for hours listening to great music. When i think of missing summer, this would definitely be a reason why....
