I was at Rudy Fest last year! It was a muddy mess. We left before it got too bad but even then it was really soggy. I heard they were moving it to Poppy Mountain. I thought it was a great idea! yeah high on the mountain for sure! No flooding next year and I love the barns on Poppy mountain.
Is Marty going to be running the festival now?

Hey John I was at Rudy Fest last summer too. You may have seen me standing behind my video camera.
We left Friday evening before it got too bad. In fact we were the first ones to get stuck in the mud and had to be pulled out by one of their tractors. By the time we got to rt 23 heading south out of Grayson it was raining so hard the traffic was going at a crawl. We could barely see the lights on the vehicle in front of us. No exaggeration, we were doing 5 and 10 miles per hour at times!
Rudy and all the usual gang are still running Rudy Fest. They are just using the Poppy Mountain site.
