Float Like a Flower

If S.B.’s multitude of seasonal celebrations still haven’t satisfied your need to commemorate the coming of summer this year, you’re in luck. Head north this week for the 57th Annual Lompoc Flower Festival, a yearly tradition that celebrates not only our county’s native flowering plants, but also its unrivaled climate, stunning scenery, and the communities we all share. The carnival-style event will feature live entertainment, a parade, great food, family-friendly attractions, and, of course, blossoming beauties. Call 962-8404 for more info. Check out the fest, currently in action, noon-8 p.m., through Sunday, June 28, at Ryon Park, Ocean Ave. and O St., Lompoc. Free. Call 735-8511 for more info.
