FORT BRAGG, CALIF.–Paul Bunyan Days is oversized fun with a BIG pancake breakfast, parade, and the burley lumberjack, Paul Bunyan, with his axe. If you recall, Bunyan and his Blue Ox, Babe, grew out of Canadian folk tales. Each year Fort Bragg hosts Paul Bunyan Days celebration that includes a 20? Axe Throw, Hand Chopping and Chain Saw Bucking contests. It takes place on Labor Day Weekend — Friday through Monday (August 30-September 2, 2013). See paulbunyandays.com
