Music in the Streets...

So, every third Friday from April til October, there is music in the streets here
 in the l.dubs....
and it is fun.
no matter how you pick to enjoy it.
Main street is closed to traffic.
There is popcorn, pizza, snow cones, beer,
people..everyone you know, and don't.
This is the kind of thing that is a draw, to me.
To us.
We can go up and down the road, no
one gets rowdy {so far}.
Your kids can pick what they want to dance to, and dance.
Stay tuned for Mrs. Potts, playing her accordian.
She is becoming famous for this....
Clowm make-up..whatever, come and play with her!
What a treasure, for sure...
In a small town.
We went with several families tonight, and we
ended up, carrying children, ALL THE WAY back
to where we started from....
But you know what I said?
Vale la pena {it is worth it}...to let our children hear the music...
To let them see the people having fun....
To participate, in our own way...
Vale la pena!   y we had fun.
All the children are in bed now,
bellies are full of cotton candy, hawaiian ice,  and popcorn...
Hopefully they are dreaming of their compadres, dancing in the road...
