artsfest part 2: the symphony

the day of artisticness was concluded with a symphony performance in the park... we were totally jazzed, if not a bit cold. it sure didn't feel like may, but whatcha gonna do?
elisha came prepared.


there were a whole gaggle of kids over on the side running and laughing and blowing bubbles. one boy in particular took the opportunity to hone his ballet skills. there's a video at the end of this post. he literally danced for 2 hours solid.





he was about 12 years old, and was actually pretty darn good! the conductor called all the kids up on one of the last songs so they could 'play' trombones for the '76 trombones led the big parade' and this ballet kid took the opportunity to perform for the entire ampitheater of people. we were imagining that his parents were either mortified or wildly proud.
