Glen Fest

These past few days have been pretty crappy, but I'm trying to keep my optimism. (This is at the urging of my father.) So I should probably post about things that make me happy. Here goes.

Right before I got the call that I would have to move (again), I was leafing through my photos and working on a fun project. I came across a lot of fun photos, but some in particular brought back some memories I had totally forgotten about.

Specifically, the time we went to Glen Fest.

For those unaware, Glen Fest is Glen Carbon IL's homecoming. It has improved in the past few years and now happens ON Main Street on a Saturday and Sunday. But back in the day when we attended (that one time), it was held on church grounds. And it was special, to say the least.

I found the picture of Rach, Barnes, and myself on the bus that shuttled us across Main Street. Also for those unaware, Main Street in GC is about as wide as my thumb. AKA- you don't need a bus to cross the street.

I found another picture of the sidewalk some genius permanently marked. With the words "smoke a bowl". In the cement before it dried. Don't think that's funny? Read above where I stated this was on church grounds.

Also on the same night, for some reason, we went to TeePee (Hey, Rox, did I spell that right?) and danced in front of the sign. In this photo, we look as if we were rapping. Or something. Rach was wearing the oh-so-infamous Mountain Dew hat.

I did find other fun things, which I will save for another blogging day. =)
