The first Saturday in May was "Mayfest" celebrating spring evens and the arts. Due to some home projects (to be featured in a future My World post), my time downtown was short. One of the highlights for me was meeting a fellow blogger and professional photographer, Bill Adkins. I found his blog A Year on Market a few weeks after it started and have enjoyed his view of a street that I have also photographed. He includes people, events, architecture and small details in his blog. A slide show of his year was running and prints on display (see below). He said the blog was his fun photography, while pictures of people and events put the kids through college. He is continuing the blog and expanding his are to include the rest of the historic section of Frederick.
Elsewhere, there was music, high scollers out for dinner before the Prom and free rides on the trolley.
Oh, I agree with Kay, it does look delightful and fun! And isn't it fun to meet up with fellow bloggers!! I've done a good bit of that lately and I have enjoyed it so much! Enjoy your week, Lew!
I am impressed that your fellow blogger was able to put his kids through college this way, Lew. The event looks like great fun and the dresses on the young ladies pretty, indeed. :)
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.
