You never know what pleasant surprise you may run into whenever you decide to pop by Occoquan, Virginia to see what’s happening. Occoquan is a quaint and very historical community, nestled on the Occoquan river, that seems to have a surprise around every corner, nook and cranny.   Yesterday, on a whim, I decided I would swing by the farmer’s market there to see what varieties of delectable home grown organic treats awaited. To my grand surprise, I found myself smack-dab in the middle of the town of Occoquan’s annual “Riverfest” which is one of the activities held by the Occoquan River Communities. There were costumed re-enactors, a trolley ride, petting zoo, pony rides, live music throughout the town as well as sidewalk sales from the local merchants. There was even a lemonade stand wi... 06/27/2010
