U of O festivities plus an extra

  It was cool walking around the U of O last Saturday with Steve and family.  Lots of people hanging  around getting a bite to eat, others listening to a music band that brought onlookers from all over.  Here is a shot of many vendors that were trying to lure you there way plus another of an individual enjoying his food.


  
  After we ate, we stopped inside to listen to a 3 man band who was playing some cool music.  The music was pretty moving where I was imitating the guy who was playing the bongo as well the one who was playing the saxophone, sorry no pictures.  As I was coming into the area the music was so moving perfectly coordinated that I saw a lady do a few cool dance moves.  It was fun watching her as she went about not only entertaining herself but me as well.  I think by showing a picture of the band one can picture how smooth they were in entertaining the audience.  The guy in the middle was the leader of the band so of course he was the most gifted entertainer in my mind.

 

  Lastly I took a stroll over to the track and field facility and watched a several runners compete in a meet under the lights.  Here they are, a tight bunch as the are coming around the bend.


  Yesterday for Mothers' Day we hiked Mt. Pisgah as this picture proudly shows, a hike that was roughly 1.5 each way.  Those clouds in the sky one could mistakenly think they were smoke coming out of from above an active volcano, sorry it was just a bunch of puffy cumulus clouds that were nearby where we were on top of the mountain.
