…Well, THAT was a time.

There was a fire and propane gas explosion that rained smoldering pine needles hither and yon (good thing I bought insurance). There was a parade cancelation, and a brief report that the whole thing was canceled. There was at least one fight (that got shut down in fifteen seconds by the cops). There was even supposedly somebody who tried to drive through the festival to get to work, only to be dragged out of his car — although that’s not in the news.

It’s been a day! I came close to making my table fee anyway. In fact, I might have been able to break even if there hadn’t been an explosion and parade cancelation and break in the festival path.

Still… I’m not sure I’m going back next year. No offense to the staff and everything, but they throw a pretty lively event. Maybe a bit too lively for my tastes.
