Fun in a Nutshell

By Linda Tancs

Why would some 200,000 people from as far north as Canada gather in Suffolk, Virginia over a peanut?  Well, maybe it’s the all-you-can-eat steamed shrimp on 6 October kicking off the four-day Suffolk Peanut Festival.   Or maybe it’s the Friday night demolition derby.  There’s a fireworks extravaganza on Saturday night, and the roar of motorcycles on Sunday at the rally.  You see, it’s not all about peanuts although they’re obviously nutty about the little legume.
