My two favorite things about the spring and summer are traveling and going to outdoor festivals. What's even better is when I can combine them. For example, this coming weekend I'm heading to Boston to visit friends and to partake in the events surrounding the infamous Boston Marathon. No, I am not running the marathon; at least not this year.

If you have the travel and event bug like I do, I found a great place to discover what's up? in other parts of the country. There is a site called festivaltrek. Just type in where you're going and the type of event you want to attend, or pick the event and then decide where you want to go. Of course, these listings are not as detailed as what you'll find in our calendar, but it's very useful for figuring out far flung fun.
