2 Cubs, a bubbling Piaggio & belly dancers - Street Fair
« on: June 10, 2023, 10:03:41 PM »
My coffee village's semiannual Street Fair today.

I have to think that these Honda Trail owners are the same two who rode that nice pair of blue & red Super Cubs to the street fair last year.


Have seen this Piaggio MP3 owner around town a few times. He was set up in a few places - bubbling up a storm today.!



Shuttle busses ran regularly - still the cars poured in all day - looking for local parking. (it's not hard to find if you come early - or know where to look! :) cars are clear up that hill into town!


Dino had a crew of 5 working early this morning - he does killer business since his shop is so centrally located!
The barista's T-shirt reads, "DECAF?! - FUGGEDABOUDIT!"
I had a double 'Shot-In-The-Dark" --- woke me right up!







Except for covid the village has been doing these for years. More porta-potties and hand-cleaner stations than one can count. Lots of food trucks on the parallel street.

Seating to eat is a trick - sometimes we're on the Group W - but today scored a table in front of the deli! It was their food....but too often occupied by strap-hangers and malcontents :)


This dance troupe are popular entertainers every year!


The smoke from Canada was evident - but it did not seem to dampen the attendance*.

*speaking of which - my daughter said it is a shame that Dave Chappelle could not show up for this event in his village. "Probably  get swarmed by out-of-towners." Then he and his wife walked by, both just wearing sunglasses.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Looks like a great day out Stig, except…. “No animals”?  What happened to pup?

JUST sunglasses?! Tsk! Exactly, what some people will do to attract attention! Well, I never....

This being Ohio, several people ignored the village's postings and brought their dogs.
The streets are made quite narrow by the booths and the thousands of people passing in both directions!
The people on the other end of the dog's leash, skateboarders and bicyclists are a PIA this day.🙂

First time I saw him in the village, I was surprised at how short he is. Reminded me of the day John Wayne walked into our teen center in Paris. He was grumpy and bald as an eagle when he took his winter hat off!!
His horse was friendly though.

Now I want some nachos but its only 7:40 am here.
Looked like fun.   Tomorrow my town is having our annual hot rod car show , if I make it
will try to post some pics of any scooters .   We all know what hot rods looks like.

I got a feeling the only scoots will be one of mine and my buddy's Vespa , we'll see.
