Lauren Krady Lancaster PA Realtor

Today the girls and I went downtown to the Lancaster Spring Art Walk. There were several venues with free kids crafts. We had a great time walking around in the beautiful weather and making crafts including a drum, a dreamcatcher, and paper quilt.

We also stopped for lunch at "Rice and Beans", a new restaurant that opened on Queen Street. We got the Cuban sandwich and the stewed chicken with yellow rice, and beans. They were each $5.50 and very tasty.

The Art Walk continues tomorrow so if you have time, go! It's a great time of year to walk around downtown and see all of the trees in bloom.
