Now We Know Why Germans Like Their Beer So Much

Our town has really tried to bring some vitality to the downtown area. For the second year in a row they brought musical groups in on Friday evenings. Last week there were African Drums. We missed that performance. This week was a German band. I have such happy memories of Germany with music and lively dancing. Also, I could not help to think about being in Ft. Lauderdale with Mary and her family a few summers ago. We had blankets and the kids ran around. It was a good time.



Like I said, our town is trying....


Somehow, this was not part of my memory.
Neither was this:



This lady and her puppet danced(?) together every, freakin', song. That does not take me back to my days in Deutschland.



Just another face in the crowd enjoying the music.



Believe it or not, this dog does not belong to the lady depicted above.

The goal was to entertain and we were in fact entertained. Cole and John picked through the grass and finally found the largest piece of grass! Jenée read a book. Alan just stared in disbelief. Mary and I laughed. In fact throughout the evening, back at our respective houses, the hint of a smile would appear across our faces with our new memories of outdoor entertainment.

Next week.....Tejano Music!
