Easton celebrates Fall Kickoff despite rain
EASTON — Gray skies and rain on Saturday couldn’t stop the Easton community from getting out to welcome the new season in the town’s annual Fall Kickoff celebration. The two-day event featured more than 100 carved pumpkins scattered throughout Easton’s downtown, a glassblowing demonstration, pumpkin painting, a live performance from local artist Jayla Elise and all sorts of other fun fall activities. Tom Maglio, marketing and events manager at Easton Economic Development Corporation, says Friday night’s events saw a “fantastic turnout.” He estimated Saturday’s indoor activities at the Talbot County Public Library still saw “over 400 people.” “The kids had a really good time, and a lot of families did go out and see the pumpkins, even with a little bit of light rain,” Maglio said. “Most of the time, it wasn’t something you couldn’t solve with an umbrella. People still got to go around and enjoy the pumpkins, which made me really happy, mainly because that’s where most of the work comes in.” Maybe the most notable pumpkin carving was a giant heron in Thompson Park, made from more than twenty distinctly carved segments. After last year’s Fall Festival featured a giant pumpkin crab, Maglio says he was heavily

12 Picture-Perfect Towns Where Victorian Architecture Refuses to Die
America built many Victorian towns, but it didn't keep many of them. In the second half of the 1800s, railroad money, mining strikes, and resort fever covered the country in turrets, bay windows, and porch trim cut with a scroll saw. Then the 20th century came along with its wrecking balls. The towns on this list are the ones that dodged them, usually because the boom ended before anyone could afford to modernize.
