Fungus fest

I am sure the Mushroom Fest will be covered amply elsewhere in these pages by my colleagues, so I will just say here that it was a good time and Kennett put its best foot forward. Obviously the organizers have things down to a science: just when I needed to throw out a napkin or a soup cup (the Kennett Square Inn's cream of mushroom soup!), there was a trash receptacle waiting. I was amused to see that residents in the neighborhoods "reserved" their on-street parking spaces with chairs, just like you see in South Philadelphia after snowstorms.
