Cedarburg Strawberry Festival: June 22-23

This is Downtown Historic Cedarburg at its summery best. Sure, the berries are the stars, but there's much more to this massive hometown celebration than that. With a pancake breakfast, wine tastings, live music, art shows, shopping as far as the eye can see and as much ice cream as you can eat, there's something at the Strawberry Festival for everyone.

Oliva recalls South Side
Spending his adolescence manning his family's self-service car wash provided John C. Oliva with what he calls "his own little library" of unusual stories and anecdotes. This year Orange Hat Publishing in Milwaukee released Oliva's memoir "Washing Cars and Wasting Time: Misadventures at a Family-Run Car Wash." The book captures life (and work) on Milwaukee's South Side during the seven years Oliva spent at the car wash at 13th and Layton.

Kruth's Orbison bio
Milwaukeeans who know erstwhile Brew City musician John Kruth, who has long since relocated to New York, will be entirely unsurprised that the multi-instrumentalist has written biographies of musicians as diverse as jazzman Rahsaan Roland Kirk, respected and troubled singer/songwriter Townes Van Zandt and, in his latest book, Roy Orbison.
