Bluegrass and Barbecue






This morning we went to the Botanic Garden for their Bluegrass Festival. Henry did a little dancing, and then we wandered around a bit. Stumbled upon a wine tasting, but there were only two wines to be tasted.
We found a hay bale maze that Henry enjoyed. I think there was another Henry in there too. It's a much more popular name than I had thought. I guess that's what happens.
Henry was especially intrigued by the giant carp swimming around in the lake. The steps go right down to the water, so we sat there and watched them for a bit. Amber would have been creeped out. People were throwing hot dog buns in the water for them and the fish would open their mouths so wide you could see right down into their bellies. Well....it seemed like it anyway.
After our second round of fish watching we had some mediocre barbecue sandwiches and then headed home. Our timing was perfect. Henry conked out in the car and then we had a brief, but heavy downpour.
Now we're watching college football....getting psyched for the Hawks v. OSU game later tonight. Go Hawks!
