Russian Festival - Chestnut Ridge, NY

We went to a Russian Festival less than 2 miles from my home.  I had no idea there was a large Russian-speaking community nearby.  The guy directing parking was yelling commands to us in Russian and we knew what he was saying by the rhythm of his speech.

There was beautiful Russian Folk Dancing
