Anyone going to check it out?
I like to hit it up for a snack or two after work... not a great time to photograph... though I may want to get out there just before to capture some decent lilac shots.

I love Highland Park. I've been half a dozen times already this spring - but I usually avoid the festival because of parking. Where do you park when you stop at that time of day?
May not be a great time for some photos, but you can get some great shots of people with their noses pressed against the blooms, or pigging out on the food.

I've found parking at the Colgate Divinity School on Goodman works pretty well. It's a bit of a walk to the booths, but close to the lilacs.

I never made it out there. It rained all the days I wanted to go, then on the weekend, I just figured it would be too crowded.
