Whenever I tell people that we live in Portland, they usually ask me if it is overrun with hippies. Actually, it is more the land of hipsters than hippies. But, the at the Earth Day celebration last weekend at our nearby park - the hippies were in full effect.
There were plenty of booths trying to save the world and some decent music. But, it was the people watching that was the best part. I captured a few characters while taking pictures of Priya.
The picture above just about captures it all. You have the crazy girls on stilts. You have the guy sitting down wearing a furry brown bear bikini of some sort next to the guy wearing Spongebob Squarepants pajamas (who was about 6'5"). And you have the garden trolls walking with the girl blowing bubbles! Good times. Priya was confused:
This old lady above was my favorite. She spent at least an hour running after the giant Earth beach ball and dancing to the music. She was feeling it.
Priya took some time to try standing up and dancing with me and Sona, and sitting in the grass with Mom.
