What do they say about life? Try anything once?Although it has been held rain or shine, almost in my backyard every mid-July since 1964, I've been in attendance, till yesterday, a grand total of zero times. By the end of the weekend, sponsors say, close to 100,000 visitors will stroll the streets of the Yarmouth Clam Festival. Finally, yesterday, I agreed to tag along with my brother and his lovely wife and take in the sights and sounds. Whether it was walking among the hundreds of craft and art booths, checking out the used book and garage sale items, sitting back and taking in the varied musical choices, or EATING, there was lots to occupy the hours. You probably want to know how the fried clams were (if I was on a deserted island and had one last meal...). Believe it or not, I had a wicked hankering for the Italian sausage with peppers and onions. Nuff said! Of course the highlight of the first day was the festive parade. We were long gone by then, but you can see by the photo that many had their chairs out already. Some of these chairs had been in place for weeks. Yes, that was not a typo. Weeks! Why? You'll have to ask others this question. Do you have a preference for seating?

You are a loyal patron! Sounds like a fun time. I kinda like the seat in the middle of the photo...yours?
ReplyDeleteI'll take the seat with the cushion, thanks. Looks like the blue throne would already be taken :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you didn't buy that toilet.
ReplyDeleteI'll take the elevator chair, just incase the crowd gets infront of me.
ReplyDeleteReal home town fun for many. Finally you made the festival which sounded like a community fest. someone had a sense of humor with that toilet seat. -- barbara
ReplyDeleteWell, I'll stand for today!
ReplyDeletewould that one be considered a porto-potty? :)
ReplyDeleteVery eclectic choice of seating Birdman, would love to see the occupants sitting in a row. Love Elenka's comment, you didn't did you!!
ReplyDeleteThat is the funniest collection of "seats" I've seen!
ReplyDeleteHe absolutely DID NOT buy that toilet! Afterall, he was a passenger in a car other than his own! He should have tried the fried clams in batter - delish!
DeleteQuite an assortment!
ReplyDeleteOh, now that's funny. How will the director of protocol arrange the seating of the guests?
ReplyDeleteA poop and go seat, you don't see them outdoor often.
ReplyDeleteIf the toilet was intended to draw attention, whoever got the idea got it just right! :)
ReplyDeleteGod bless you!

Interesting array of seating. Wonder if the blue one is the inexpensive port-a-pottie or, perhaps, it's a dual purpose cHair; you know sit a little then . . .
ReplyDeleteDarryl and Ruth :)
