in an effort
to cram in all available
frivolities,
we went directly from
the chamber crawl
to the summer solstice
fairy festival
in the park
near our house
~ ~ ~
| fairy ladies primping |
in particular,
we wanted to catch
the newly minted duo
this fierce little fairy
enjoyed them, too.
we've heard them each
in different settings...
molly, a long-time local singer/songwriter,
& quilla, a much more recent addition to our scene.
| there i am. white hat. front & center. |
up close
i love this song.
lots of beautiful
fairy costumes all around.
these two young women
sat down near us.
then a little girl started
to do a running dance,
back & forth
at the edge of the grass.
i enjoyed
looking into the
past.
| running fast |
| running faster |
then,
a young man
sat down next to the fairy
in the orange tutu
and started
blowing smoke.
(he shared his pipe
with the her.)
summer solstice parade!
| not complete without a....mermaid? |
puppet parade
| Summer Sun and Wise Owl |
| ballerina fairy |
| lighting was challenging...but i loved seeing this trio of fairies |
solstice hoops
hula hoops dancing in the wind
Happy Solstice!
