The cherry festival is swamped with tourists anymore. We avoid Traverse City when it takes place. When we were young, we used to go down to the beach with a cooler of goodies and an old blanket to put on the sand to watch the festival's fireworks. Even back then, you had to park a mile away and walk in. I can't even imagine what it's like now, even with the newer parking garage.
More people than what Trump's silly shindig gets, for sure.
