last week the carnival was in town
the place was filled with children's laughters and excited screams
hipster kids in herds or embraced in teenage romance
local bands playing originals between pop culture covers
bright lights all around
popcorn, cotton candy and other foods being munched on
smiles and hugs from our kids recognizing other kids from around town
all in all, a fun time to be out, to with friends and family....

I have just been thinking about carnival! We live near a vintage '70s amusement park that is a bit of a wonder (why for instance is it still open?) but I love to photograph it, and it opens this weekend, weather permitting. Can't wait!
