Tonight, my husband and I went to a free concert at Phoenix Park. Three bands played in the grassy amphitheatre with the labyrinth dance floor. The swollen Chippewa River and a slipping sunset served as a background.
We met my parents there, and my mom bought me ice cream (Mackinac Island Fudge). It was a beautiful night, and it was fun to watch the people enjoying themselves.
Kids danced and bopped beach balls to each other on the bricks of the labyrinth. Band members gamely tossed or kicked balls back into the fray, without missing a beat.
Later, after the bands were done and the sun had set, fire spinners performed for the remaining stragglers who were enjoying themselves too much to leave. There were poi spinners and hoop spinners. Two of the poi spinners managed to set themselves on fire, but kept their cool, extinguished the flames, and kept the poi spinning. Their poise (pun intended) was impressive.
Happy accomplished!
