Spring Fest, A Review

After a rigorous hour of yoga at the DAC, where I saw our first and best ever follower, Diego, I was very excited to grab a delicious veggie burger and maybe some chips at Spring Fest. Barbecues are one of my favorite things. Much to my chagrin, when I left the DAC there were no people happily grilling over on Buckley. In fact it was thinking about raining and although it smelled lovely there weren’t many people out. I called Anthony VG to see if he had any more details but he had none. There were a bunch of people standing under a tent in the Rush Garden eating what looked to me like burgers but I didn’t want to be in such an enclosed area alone with all of those crazy christians. Not to mention that I wasn’t hungry.
