Linden Hills Festival



Just for fun, here are some pictures from the Linden Hills Festival, held at Linden Hills Park in southwest Minneapolis, last Sunday, May 22. Here's the parade of kids on bicycles and strollers that goes around the block, to start the festival at noon:





And, of course, what festival would be complete without pony rides for the kids:





There were a lot of other rides and games for the kids, a large silent auction for the adults, a portable band shell for music and live acts (my favorite is always the Linden Hills Orchestra -- an ad hoc group of players in the area who get together just for the festival). Oh, and lots of food. Plenty of arts and crafts people selling their wares in booths, as well.

It was a great time. The Festival was rained out in 2001 and 2004, so we were glad to have a chance to get this one off the ground.
