Greetings from ... wait, what day is it?

Dear Friends and Family,
By midweek you forget what day it is, and what time it is, and those things don't seem like they will ever be important again. The city is so full of people and things to see and do that you would swear we all live here year-round. I haven't seen some of my friends from construction for days, but I know they're here somewhere, having a great time. The faces may be different, but everyone is smiling.

The Café is the place to see and be seen during the heat of the day. Jugglers, stilt walkers, and fantastically costumed creatures are literally coming out of the woodwork. People bring newspapers, games, toys, artwork, craft projects, nail polish, gifts, and tarot cards to enjoy under the Café shade for the hottest hours.

Trying to climb around the furniture, art, and bodies to take pictures becomes a bit challenging, especially in my big boots, but it's a whole lot of fun and a good way to meet a lot of nice people.

Tonight is the second of our Regional Nights on the music stage, where performers from the eastern states, lead by a huge New York Burner community, will come together for the evening.
