SUMMER SOLSTICE!!

Something a little out of the ordinary here!! 

We went to a Summer Solstice Party put on by a farmer near here.  They had several tents selling goods from jewelry to clothing to food (as in fried bread).  They also had a hamburger stand but the line was always so long that we just had the bread (twice!!).
Musicians were scheduled all day and night long to play on the stage.


They had a petting zoo, horses to ride, a llama, etc. and other games for the kids.



They also had a beer garden where they were selling the local brewery's beer.  So we had some with our bread, sat a picnic table, listened to the music, and talked with the people around us.  It was beautiful day.


 Right near our table was this gal who was using the hoola hoop.  You could tell that she had practiced alot because it came really easy for her.



We didn't stay late but got up at 1:30 AM to take this picture:


The picture was taken toward the west.  That's about as dark as it got.

Fortunately, we have some good shades in the bedroom because it hasn't been very dark for several weeks now.

Next - Homer.
