The first of a few posts from over the weekend. Every Memorial Day Weekend, there is a festival called FolkLife at the Seattle Center. I went down Saturday afternoon for about 4 hours. I listened to some randon music, not really paying attention, mainly sun worship and people watching. The bluegrass guys on the lawn were great. The last stop of the day was the chinese puppet show. The monkey skit was fantastic.

Here are some additional photos from folklife that Scott took.
What’s the deal with the giant, spritzing pasta strainer?
It’s a big fountain in the middle of the Seattle Center (space needle, key arena, opera house, other performance places). Kids frolic during the summer, the fountain is keyed to dofferent music programs.
