FABULOUS WEEKEND WEATHER FOR FESTIVAL |
This weekend's weather forecast is incredible! With a high of 74 on Sunday, you won't want to miss a sunny day in downtown Cape or the great entertainment at the Cape Girardeau Storytelling Festival. To top it all off the floodgate is open, so during the breaks between storytelling sessions, make sure you take the opportunity to take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the flowing waters that have inspired Mark Twain and so many other storytellers of history.
