Summer Festivals around Washington

Hi everyone--
There is a joke in our area that summer in Seattle doesn't "officially" begin until July 5th (while the rest of the country has been enjoying summer since May!!)  Well, we were right on schedule this year, and...  summer has finally arrived! Can you believe this fantastic summer weather we are having??  

There are many events and festivals to enjoy throughout the summer months.  Our ELLA co-founder, Denise, has put together a list of festivals and events throughout the state.  Thank you, Denise!!  This is a great list of some wonderful ideas for enjoying the summer:
