Photoessay #2038 - Gamble Rogers Folk Festival

First of all, we're home. It takes a LONG time to get from Jacksonville Florida to Seattle. And I did manage to cobble together something from the refrigerator after eating out for 10 days in a row (I'm really going to have to look into those  Cuban dishes).

But first let me tell you about the concert we went to last night.  St. Augustine stages the Gamble Rogers Folk Festival with a Friday night concert then four stages going all day Saturday.  We got to go the Friday night concert down at the Marina, about 6-8 blocks from where we stayed.  Five hours, five local bands, what a treat!  In the middle was Willie Green who is an old-fashioned blues man playing the harmonica and singing.  "The real thing" as they say.

The second picture shows the backdrop for the stage.  Right along the intercoastal waterway by the "Bridge of Lions".  This  is just how it looked yesterday evening.

And we never needed a sweater the whole time we were there.  Shorts and sandals all the way.  Very very pleasant.
