People in your Neighborhood

We finally got some halfway decent weather in time for Car Free Day.  Our street shuts down to traffic and local artisans and business expand to fill the space. It makes for good people watching, dog watching and street meat.

Geordie and I stopped to listen to a guy rap about sandwiches while a pickle in a cowboy hat grooved. They guy in the red was really working it. It was a very enjoyable performance which made everyone laugh and clap in appreciation of sandwiches and dancing pickles. No drugs were involved in the taking of this picture. The homeless guy in the middle really ties the weirdness of our neighborhood together as retirees, hippies and the down and out all party together with a cowboy vegetable.

I don't like clowns. This particular one we see near Stanley Park fairly often. But on this Sunday he was plying his trade on Denman St. Kids balloons and mild acrobatics. Still not a fan but I appreciate the scuba fins.
