Hope had a Canada Day street party ( of sorts ) today. Face painting, food and beverage vendors, a Strongman competition, and a classic car show.
By the time I left home at noon, it was in full swing. For Hope. It was difficult to guesstimate how many were there as it was spread over several blocks. 1000 maybe? On the high side. :)
Look at all the pretty colors cool cars that I saw!
The STRONGMAN COMPETITION was through this throng of people, of which I did not want to go wading through. And they need to change the name of their org. as there were some bad ass looking females there.
Do you see Smokey the Bear in the foreground of the last photo? One of the reasons I specifically went there today was, I kid you not, to have my photo taken with him. But by the time I circled around the block he was gone. *sad face*
And for your listening pleasure….
I’m going to head down to the river after dinner. Mostly just to see what the water level is at.
Because one day it can be like this…
and the next like this…
Have a great long weekend!




Great photos Colleen Especially the one with the high waters.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun! Did you get your photo with Smokey? :)

ReplyDeleteSadly Smokey was gone by the time I circled around. Boo Hoo!
