So last weekend we all got to enjoy beautiful art and unique treasures at ARToberFEST. Now. This weekend, we get to enjoy fine German cuisine. Music. And beer! That's right. It's time for First Evangelical Lutheran Church's annual Oktoberfest celebration.
This year marks the 28th year the church has put the event on. Last year's Oktberfest (otherwise known as Ike's-over-fest) was a bit scaled down since it happened shortly after the storm. But this year's Oktoberfest seems to be bigger and better than ever. (Be sure to click on the link to visit the website for full details.)
Oktoberfest takes place tonight, starting at 5 p.m. Then on Saturday, the event begins at 11 a.m. and lasts until 7 p.m. Live music will be played both evenings. Just make your way north on 24th Street and when you get to Winnie you'll see the commotion.
Be sure to visit Noel and taste his sausage, especially prepared for you. Tender and juicy even.
On a side note: Galveston made it on MSN's homepage this morning as one of America's top port cities. Pretty neat (even if they were way off on the population... 280,000... wow... maybe in the county). Here's the link.
