One of the event planners who saw my husband's performance at the last fair we had in the community asked him if he would play a few songs at this fundraiser, so he was the opening act. The sunshine and festive ambiance brought out a few groupies, and before long the stage was filled with little boys, girls and babies who danced, clapped, and boogied along with each song. I almost would say that the concert stole the whole show until these guys moseyed along and told me different...
It's hard to keep a little kids attention on the wheels of a bus when there is a giant turtle with a miniature dog on its back making the rounds of the fair. But even the novelty of that soon wore off (they weren't allowed to touch him) and before long everyone was back on stage shaking their sillies out.
It was a great afternoon to give back to the community, help out a wonderful series of preschools that service our neighbourhood, and have some great ole family fun.
No better way to kick off summer than with fresh barbecued hot dogs, music, games and a tiny dog piggy backing a giant tortoise. Welcome Summer!
Ha ha ha! Just got a chance to catch up on your posts and the giant turtle plus dog combo had me in fits. More Matthew, that is one odd way to upstage a guy... ;-)
