Last night Uncle Joe and I got to go to Symphony in the Park, sans children!
It was a very hot and humid evening, but pleasant nonetheless. We got to see friends we haven't seen in a while and hear some good music performed by the Muskogee Community Band. It was held at Honor Heights Park in Muskogee and has become an annual event. I think it improved since the last time we went.
Here is the picnic basket we bought there. It was full of meat, cheez, and fruits and veggies. ( I let UJ have ALL the celery. haha)
There are banners for sale every year. They are all very nice but this one was my favorite. I loved the color.......
I wanted a shot of the moon over the band tent. You can see the moonspeck....
The night ended with fireworks.
How can a night that ends in fireworks be a bad one?? It can't.
Well there was the fact that we parked up a hill and while trudging up it in the dark in my new sparkley blue flipflops I got both feet stuck in a mud slide, then had to dig them out and step in more mud up to my ankles! I had mud all over me and my clothes by the time I got to the top. haha
Fireworks make just about any night terrific.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a fun time, even if there was no peanut butter for the celery.
How fun! Parks are very unappealing around here this year. I'm thinking we are not going to have a summer at all. It's depressing.
ReplyDeleteA perfect end to a perfect evening.. UJ carrying you back to the car.
ReplyDeletehee hee
all of my nights end with fireworks but people don't seem to like them. They tend to smell a little

ReplyDeleteJD: for me to eat celery there would have to be a lot of peanut butter and very little celery.

Ponder: I'll let you rephrase that.

ReplyDeleteYou've coined a beautiful new word: "Moonspeck". Quite poetic.
ReplyDeleteI am looking at the picture of the picnic food and I am getting hungry...why does food always taste better when eaten out of doors?
This sounds like a lovely evening. Music, fireworks...er...mud?...well may not the mud part!
