Events


Sep. 14 - Balloon Glow on Art Hill
之前幾年,都是相公帶我乘電軌車去。
今年他沒興趣,而我的朋友沒看過,她說要看,我們一個在南一個在北,那我就說駕車在那兒見。


沒想到駕車去要找車位泊,真的是問題,車多人更多。好不容易找到非停車位也照泊,就走約1-2哩路去該地點。


我和朋友聚了,坐下來欣賞音樂不到半小時就徹,忘了還有煙花,因怕結束時太多人離開,又是問題。


總之,花費在來去的時間6倍多。
哈哈。


Sep. 15 - Astronomical Night Under the Stars at Crestwood Park. 
This was one of the places Steve grew up, grade school through college. The sledding hill, he used to walk his dog there. 


A hot air balloon landed here.


Tonight, there were 4 telescopes, we got to see half moon, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Altair (star) and a globular cluster.


That was awesome.


Sep. 16 - Kirkwood Greentree Festival


Steve went there for curry puffs, his favorite.


Little pieces of yard art. If you look closely, you can see that everything is made out of spoons.



There were several Civil War re-enactment groups at the festival.


Medicine, as practiced around the Civil War.


Another re-enactment group. This was a mobile blacksmith shop. The forge is real, and they were demonstrating how they make some of the things they sell.



Steve said: The Lilliputian fleet, heading off to attack Blefuscu.


Great non-carbonated root beer.
