Summer Sonic Tonic

A perfect convergence of weather, people and music took place on Sunday, August 16, 2009 at the Waterfall Arts campus on Kingdom Road in Montville, Maine.

Ian, my superb spouse's younger son is visiting from Brooklyn. He brought about half his band, 12,000 Trees, to a gig at Waterfall Arts. The 12,000 Trees line-up: Ian on percussion and electronic thingies, Brett on trombone and vocal, Sky on guitar and vocal, Yuko on guitar, Alison on percussion and recorder, Mekiko on keyboard and percussion, Zak on guitar and percussion and Pam on percussion and birdcalls.

Other bands included the Belfast Fiddlers and two more fiddle ensembles.

All in all, a superb way to spend a summer Sunday afternoon!

Moose freed after being caught in Camden building - Bangor Daily News

Moose freed after being caught in Camden building
- Bangor Daily News

We were blissfully unaware of the drama unfolding just around the corner from us yesterday morning! I am glad the moose was let loose in a (hopefully) safe place later in the day.

This post illustrates the gritty semi wilderness side of Camden that not many people are aware of. Thank goodness that handling this sort of incident is just all in a days work for Camden's finest!
