It's Barbecue Festival Weekend!

Anyone near central North Carolina this weekend should come to the 21st annual Barbecue Festival in Lexington, NC!!! It's so much fun! For the past 2 years the city has had an art exhibit called Pigs in the City where local artists paint life-sized (or larger) fiberglass pigs and they are posted all over the city, with a map and "walking tour" developed for people to see the pigs.

Here's a couple of links to pictures:

Interesting to note the little guy with the American Flag was stolen and missing for 3 months, only to be found, unharmed, in a field.
