Brooklyn hits the streets

A street fair brings out the best in a community. Free music for everyone, singing and dancing,
and a opportunity for people from all over to see a new area.

No. It's not the deep fried Oreos that brought me out to yet another fair this weekend.
In the past few weeks I have been to a few fairs in Jersey (no creepy clowns here).
This one was different.

It was in Brooklyn. Park Slope.

The look, the feel, and, most importantly, the people made up this seemingly endless stretch of street festival a New York special event.

The music stages on each end provided great entertainment for everyone.
The Acapella group above entertained the crowds like it has for decades.
Roasted corn, Sangria, Guacamole, Sushi, and Saki made up the diet this day.

The green machine

The dogs and kitties too were here, happy to be in the mix.
Bubble machines, painted faces and green hair ruled the day for the kids.
Yes, these were the same streets I walked many years ago.
This place was different back then, but the feel is the same.
I walked till my feet bled.
Then I walked some more.

There's no place on earth like Brooklyn.
