Our third time participating in The Georgetown Carnival reminded me why I love that part of the city so much. I had a nice chat with my friend and hopefully our next city-wide city council member Bill Bradburd. He’ll do such good things for our city.

This year Grace’s Band Of Toy climbed out of their shopping cart and took to the streets, charming, thrilling and mildly disturbing everyone they met. Memories were made. Grace also had some paintings in the Parlor, one of which went home with one lucky lady.

I did some live painting on some of my much-neglected current body of work, while spreading the word on what’s happening at the ProletariYacht Club.

The Countess held court by the Roadside Attractions tent, where Tim wove tapestries of sounds, then was joined by Alan and Marko., and unexpectedly by a roving marching band adding a little Honk Fest flavor to the mix. Sage did a set of his family friendly magic drawing a crowd of kids of all ages, and we even had a couple of lovely looooong legged ladies saunter up to the Airstream to rest for a spell. I’m not sure they are related to The Countess, but I suspect so. All in all it was a wonderful time and we’re so thankful to the folks doing all the hard work to make it happen.
