as for marking the roads for snowplows in the winter, they use 8 ft. plexi pipe fastened on 4 ft mile markers along the edge of the road. Some of the plexi pipe has orange flags, some have black. Some of our snow gets stacked pretty high in the winter.
Looks like it was a fun event. We have a First Friday Art Walk in which we visit exhibits at 7 different art places and have refreshments as we stroll around looking. Last Friday, they also ahd demonstrations of different types of dancing in the streets.
I joined the Header Challenge team in November. We post a new header each week on a suggested theme. Imac is the founder and head of the team. The members vote for best header and the winner gets the gold. The links above will take you to the other participants.

Looks like a fun place to be! I like the ones in costume and i'd probably be sitting nearby sipping coffee if that band is good:)
