Today I was asked to play music at the Borup MN 125th celebration. Borup is a tiny town of only 110 people, but today it was busy and booming! It was a nice day - but hot, hot, hot - and the town had a great crowd for their event. There was a parade, a car show, lots of vendors (I bought a cute headband to wear today!), plenty for kids to do, and a great community supper at the fire hall. Fortunately I played in an air conditioned hall, so that was a blessing on a hot day like today! Harold and I had a good time, and I got to earn a little spending cash. While I was playing, a delightful little boy about 5 yrs old danced the whole time. He talked up a storm and was quite energetic and entertaining as he did "break dancing" to polkas and two steps, and schottisches! Here's a photo tour of today's activity:

Looks like a good time.
Too bad your blog doesn't have sound - would have liked to hear you play!!!
