Just got in...too much to compliment Planet Bluegrass, KOTO, the residents of Telluride, so on and so on about now...but for me the highlight was Ricky Skaggs, KY Thunder with Hornsby....such a great set!!  Missed out on the Yonder madness at the Sheriden, oh well, too tired to detail too much more, but what a great time!!

It was my first TBF, but most DEFINITELY won't be my last!! Such an amazing experience! ~ Due to a bad car accident last summer, I still require the use of a walker.. I was very pleasantly surprised at how many folks seemed genuinely concerned with how I was doing. Every time I turned around, someone was checking on me to be sure I was okay.. You guys are an incredible community that I am truly honored to call family!!
 :hug
I was also amazed at how many of you came up and personally thanked me for blowing the bubbles!! That's something that I've been doing for MANY years at lots of various festivals, but I've never had so many marvelous compliments from fellow festivarians ~ Wayta make this newbie mama feel welcome!!!

See ya next year!!!!

I had the best festival I have had in years.... thanks in no small part to my family here on the forum.  I had been going through such a hard time in my personal life and really wasn't sure if I could make it through the festival.  I had the chance to strengthen relationships that mean a lot to me; to forge new, and hopefully lasting friendships, and to celebrate life in all it's various guises. 

Thank you all very, very much... and thank you Planet!!

I had a blast...and part of it was just camping and chilling
with a wonderful group of folks.  On Sunday night after
the House Band set, at out campsite, I tripped and took
a fall, hitting the ground with my left temple.  Fortunately,
I was ok...but I smile looking back because nearly everyone
at the campsite kept making sure that I was ok.   Thank
you all... :)

Been hard not to!

Perfect weather, almost!

Perfect Music, almost! Ryan was too loud for sure! :-(

Perfect company, every day!

Food was great, really still a bit bummed with the lack of Strawberry Shortcake from the folks at the Italian place, that used to be a festival perennial, when did they pull out?

 Flower I heard lots of folks talking about how much fun the Festival was this year. Great weather to start with, I loved the Younder and Leftover Salmon Set, and couldn't of been happier when Big Jon, Craig and Steve got the attention they so greatly deserve for putting this really big shu on.
