There is a link to the information on the site right in the event posting. Do you have any specific questions? We went last year and I thought it was pretty good. Good enough to go back again. It was cold! There were fireworks as well as the open house in the village.

Unfortunately a family commitment has come up in the last few days, and I am no longer able to come to this. :(

Good idea but it doesn't seem to be open before the event. (Sundays & Holidays March-October)

Thanks again to Daryl. Wish I got to see more of the place in the daylight, and out of the mist.

I think I have a few interesting shots with the fish. Will have to go thru them when I'm a little more awake.

Thanks everyone for coming out. It was a little warmer than expected, and the fog was a bit of a bonus. I had a good night.
