Petaluma Butter & Egg Days - 04/28/12 - 04/29/12

Please don't hit on THESE chicks.
Petaluma Butter & Egg Days
Petaluma, CA

I never get tired of festivals.  I love pancake breakfasts, marching bands, and poor saps cleaning up after nervous horses during parades; and when a festival also features a Cow Chip Throwing Contest, I HAVE TO be there.

Petaluma is one of the premier dairy regions in the country, and Butter & Eggs Days celebrates the area's rich agricultural history.  Drawing thousands of attendees annually, the event boasts a parade with over 3,000 participants as well as a seemingly never-ending block-long outdoor food court.

Browse the local shops and take time perusing the Antique Fair (Sunday only).  Be sure to catch the traditional Cutest Little Chick Contest which awards prizes to egg-ceptional dairy-related costumes.  I hope you laughed at that one.
