My sister Sherry and  her  husband Nelson, pictured here with me in the VIP beer tent, traveled from Massachusetts for the festival.

People enjoying music at the Workshop Porch, one of the nine festival stages.

Two Toms standing on Tom Phelp’s pottery vending porch deck.

The view  from Tom’s highrise of the Dreaming Creek main stage.

Donna the Buffalo, one of my festival favorites back for decade celebration.

View of the sold out crowd from the main stage.

While waiting in line for my favorite pesto quesadilla my friend Emily shows off her tattoo.

Catching an impromtu performance of the Blue Man group in rainbow colors was a Saturday highlight.  Video HERE.

A group of teens chilled out in the Global Village’s  iBme Imagine Tent.  This shot was taken during a wisdom talk given by my husband Joe (iBme founder) titled Sex, Drugs, Facebook and Ice Cream.

The heat numbers were up just like the attendance.  We appreciated taking pit stops at the misting fans.

After attending every festival for the past ten years, I think I qualify as being Floydfest X-perienced.

I love everything about Floydfest but festival family time is my favorite part.  ~ Colleen Redman blogs daily at looseleafnotes.com.
