November Festivals

It appears that October is festival month in Southern California.  November, not so much.  Whether it’s the post-harvest doldrums or the pre-Christmas calm, there appears to be quite a bit fewer festivals in November.  I’m not done seeking out worthwhile activities but don’t imagine I am going to suddenly stumble upon a hidden treasure-trove of festivals so figured that I should get the few that I do have out there.  And so I give you…November.
