This all happened in the Summertime of when I joined my sister-in-law and her three YOUNG children on their trip to the Michigan Renaissance Festival in Holly. I had never been before, even though I literally live just up the road in Grand Blanc.
I was actually really excited, because until my kids were big enough, I just couldn't imagine hauling infants and toddlers to such a huge event (although many, many parents seem to.) Anyway, with literally a van full of kids, we took the drive over. First, it took FOR-EV-ER to get parked. I mean, come on guys, ever heard of "capacity reached"? No, no, they literally had us packed into the back, back lot (even though it was clear we had kids with us) and the lot monkeys had us so close to one another that it was next to impossible to open doors without dinging the other cars around us. But I digress. After what was a harrowing situation just getting PARKED, we learned that it was literally a MILE walk to the entrance.
