Douglass Theater Reception

Last night, I went to the Douglass Theater, where three area artists were showing some of their work.

Lynne Barta had some of her photography up (a mix of really nice still life images and landscapes).

William Haun had a collection of portraits that he has taken around the world that were very striking and drew lots of praise.

Woodrow Gray's wire sculptures were also on display and were very creative and whimsical at times.










The Douglass was our first stop as we toured all over downtown last night. It was great to see so many people out enjoying the evening. There were several bands playing outside, as well as individual musicians inside the clubs, bars, and restaurants. Plus, several of the art galleries were open, showing off local artist's work.

We stopped by Acapulco for a late supper (yum!) and grabbed a fruit smoothy for the evening stroll to the tunes of the Loose Screws Band at the end of the evening

Really?

Hmmmm.

I guess the fine print at the bottom saves the day.
Always read the fine print!

Georgia State Fair

Spent the afternoon at the Georgia State Fair, here in Macon today.
Yep, pig races!!!

Here piggy, piggy, piggy!

Spent part of the afternoon with my friend Bonnie at the local festival in Byron. Had a great time, watching people, visiting the museum, smelling the carnival food, and just hanging out.

Bonnie was "volun-told" to be in the pie eating contest, and she even got to wear a pig's snout.

Of course, I had to have a camera handy. Actually, it was her camera. I had mine in one hand and hers in the other...but I finally put mine away and just used hers and she kindly shared the porcine images!

On the road again

My truck is back in the driveway...hurray, hurray. Amazing how $3,500 worth of damage can be taken care of in a week....and the paint job even matches.
