Downtown City Fest....

Each year our city holds a "Fest" downtown, where cyclists compete and the onlookers eat! (I'm an onlooker... just sayin')

since our city is considered the peanut capitol of the world, we have peanut statues all around town.  Here's one pointing to the downtown area.

Oooooo, look!  Cyclists!

I thought this was cute !  It's a wall that's put up infront of construction.  It says " What the world calls an end, the master calls a beginning" ... cute.

Another one of our city's appeal, is it's murals depicting the city's history. Not quite sure what's going on herre ??  Prohibition?? LOL

Oooooo, look!  Food!  It's actually gumgo.  They had a gumbo cook off where we got to taste 5 different types of gumbo and then vote for our favorite.

Had I known that the last one I tasted was cooked with crawfish and oysters ....  I wouldn't have eaten it last -- UGH!  The aftertaste was .... fishy???

Local entertainment while we strolled around eating gumbo and seeing the sites.

Ooooooo, Look!  It's Jordan in a rare picture taking moment !!

Oooooo, Look!  Funnel Cakes !

We all had a great time... true family entertainment --- with dogs allowed :-)
