Everybody wants to be Greek!

Every June, St. George Greek Orthodox Church holds a Greek Festival where there is food, dancing and pure enjoyment. Who can resist the smell of roasting lambs, greek fries, moussaka? Certainly not me. I look forward to the festival every year.

After we finished eating (I had a lamb gyro with greek fries - YUM), we took a tour of the church, led  by one of the parishioners. He did a great job of explaning some of the history of the church; along with the significance of the iconography that is displayed on the interior of the church.

And, of course, there was dancing!
