07.11.10 (posted 07.16.10) - street fairs are in full swing! even though the temps reached nearly 90°+, this didn't stop folks from enjoying the festivities. there were many of the regular vendors you see at nearly every fair in the city -- the guy selling tube socks, the lady selling discounted linen, or the family selling t-shirts, sunglasses, or jewelry. plus it's election season so there were plenty of campaign workers trying to get folks to support various candidates. there was also a bounce house for the kids, a grumpy, old musician, and plenty of food booths.
the first place i headed to was a lemonade stand. once i got hydrated, i could better figure out the lay of the land and navigate my way through the crowds. whew! i ended up buying a photograph from a local artist and a t-shirt with my neighborhood's name screen printed on the front. here are a few shots of some of the sights along the fair route.
