Oregon Country Fair photos

I didn't have time yesterday to sort out photos of the Oregon Country Fair. Looking at them again this morning when I was re-sizing them all made me a bit wistful about what a wonderful time I had in Oregon in general, and the Fair specifically. I'm not sure the pictures will do it justice because, for some reason, I didn't get my camera out much, and when I did, I seem to have taken a bunch of average photographs. Oh well, here they are anyway; at least you'll get some sort of idea. I know that I'm gonna sound like the hippy that I've spent my adult life mockingly sniggering at, but the energy there was pretty fantastic. Now, where did I put my mushrooms...

Let's begin with some man hippies...


...and some lady hippies

Some sort of parade

Setting sun
