Outdoor festival silliness:

Obviously, I dressed wrongly. And needed more glitter.

Ok. This guy on your right will give me some really strange nightmares. :wtf:
I like your skirt! I am on the lookout for one that looks exactly like this.

Today was a wonderful Sunday.
Festival time here too!

But first - typical Iris for our area growing wild next to the street!

Went to my all time favorite childhood festival - the local volunteer fire department festival. They offer rides on fire trucks around the city.

They even featured my favorite childhood ride - it is still the same, was reastaurated a couple of years ago.

The strap on your Picard bag looks great.
Aaaaahhh. Good old Schiffschaukel. :)
Our volunteer fire workers had a huge festival last year. They totally forgot a Schiffschaukel. Boo!

Totally forgot to comment on your phone (we need to blame the sparkling guy on remainsilly's pic: he destroyed some of my brain cells :D).
Congrats on your new phone! I am still with my iPhone 4. But I have read a lot of good things about the iPhone 8. And it looks so hot in red! :nuts::nuts::nuts:

That are is so cool looking!
The cost of an iPhone is just ridiculous no matter which one you get.
And lately they don’t seem to work any better than an Android.
Still having problems with mine even this I’ve been back to the store multiple times.

To his credit, wore that heavy helmet ALL DAY. I admire dedicated weirdness.:tup:

Thanks:heart:
Not much help on finding your skirt--
mine is jones new york. Had for YEARS, probably bought at thrift store.
Wore it & same chaco sandals, to hike all over Greece. Popping on some leggings, when cold.

Android user, me.:angel:
Phone is in lifeproof case. Beat the sh!t out of thing--had to replace case.
Volcanic islands, boats, airplanes, bikes, mountains, rainforests...
must clear browser cache often. To kill "Congratulations! Winner!" malware junk.
Otherwise, soldiers on.

But, deep down, I hate smartphones.:annoyed: And bought reluctantly.

Apple has gone downhill in many ways. I am a long time user (not a worshipper, though) and nothings works like it did a few years ago.

Will keep my phone until it falls apart.
They are just too expensive to replace them frequently.
(I fear I will have to replace the phone soon. There are no updates anymore and it has troubles with complicated websites. For now it works.)
I had a similar skirt once. Gave it away, because I lost weight.

Good Morning ladies and happy Monday!
Hope everyone survived the weekend festivals. :smile:
I did not go to a festival, just to the local park.
Thankfully we have a Holiday tomorrow and I do not need to go to the office. Hooray!

We celebrated one of my dd’s birthday yesterday she turned 17 and promptly drove her car around almost all day as she’s been waiting and waiting for this birthday to arrive, lol!

How exciting!:broom:
My 1st car was manual transmission, with big dent already. And a cb radio.
When proved I could care for vehicles, the next one was dentless. For awhile. :whistle:

I first had a 3.( I still use it as an IPod Touch)[emoji106]
The second one was a 3GS. It worked perfectly but there were no more upgrades.[emoji853]
6 years later I bought the 8.
My IPad is 5 years old.
So far I have never had any problems with Apple but you never know..[emoji45]

I always attract the problem units.
Atennagate. Battery drain. Lack of ringtone with incoming calls. All the usual.

Still driving manual transmission. Have the feeling to have more control over the car.
Automatic transmission and I can never agree on the same shift to use.
