For my local NW friends, you know its been quite rainy recently. Well today was a breathtaking beautiful sunny today. So Jasmine and I left the house in search of outdoor fun. We found an Arts festival with the theme of recycling in a nearby town. We browsed many booths of arts and crafts. They also had a high school art contest pavilion, which had many nice pieces. I especially liked the artwork that used colorful buttons in layered patterns.

But all thoughts of browsing vanished once we discovered the waterfall park. Whereupon Jasmine promised only to get her feet wet. After 10 minutes of playing, I think there were one or two dry spots left on her shoulders. Jasmine is pretty sure her being soaked was just an accident, it was the other kids splashing water and it had nothing to do with her standing in fountains of water or sitting down on the waterfall ledges.

The festival also had a performance stage. We listened to songs from a group of 30 singers, we watched a local theater troupe, and marveled at the home-made outfits for the trash-to-fashion show. Our favorites was the coffee filter wedding dress and the paper plate cocktail dress.
