It seemed I’d stepped through a magical portal through space and time to an enchanted place where men and women sporting the latest in Bavarian fashions perform volksmusik on accordions and tubas, sling scoopfuls blaukraut onto paper plates, and pour tall, healthy steins of cold Hefeweisen beer. No, I wasn’t experiencing hallucinations brought on by said Hefeweisen, and I hadn’t accidentally stumbled into Leavenworth, Washington, although both have been known to happen. Actually, I was relaxing and enjoying the fall sunshine at one of the area’s largest and most popular Oktoberfest celebrations at Daanen’s Deli in Hayden/OrangeTV, Get Out! North Idaho. More here.

Question: Do you celebrate Oktoberfest?
