random thoughts - Day 2,006 (Saturday) - outside and in

The weather was great for Hubbardston Lions Club Field Day and dancing outdoors. There were light breezes, some clouds, neither too hot nor too chilly. We've danced at this event several times, and this year we had a new program and new costumes, so even if people saw us perform in past years, today it was fresher. 

Potty with a warning label.

The event vendors had honey and beeswax candles, soap, and lip balm; hoodies; jewelry; baked goods; cosmetics; and lots more. There were critters to learn about and interact with including a big tortoise, a snake, and some very fluffy chickens. There was a bouncy house and space with giant bubbles and balloon art. Entertainment included a capoeira demonstration, our belly dance performance, and live music. There was something for everyone. 

One source of entertainment was a porta potty with a warning label. A piece of paper taped to the door read "Bathroom out of service - You can use it but it's grody." Now there's an 80s flashback word. Do people really say that again? Gnarly. 

The afternoon included a visit from friends who delivered a couple chairs and a case of wine that had been stored at their house before the move. Now the wine rack has a reason to exist. We got the mirror attached to the console and later I got all the crystal returned to the cubbies. The dining table will be fully restored to order tomorrow. Or the next day. Or soon.

We almost removed the two window A/C units but I have no idea where to put them. For the next month or so, they will remain in the windows until I figure it out.

My friend even figured out how to get the recently bought Buddha solar lantern to be a lantern. It's entirely possible it was illuminating before and I just never checked it after dark to see it, but now it is illuminated and verified and the top step is lit. Now I definitely maybe want more of the Buddha solar lantern. We'll see. Maybe not.
