First of all let me give credit to the organizers of this wonderful festival. I think for the first ever Columbia Heights Day, they did a fantastic job. Having said that, I can’t help but think was this Columbia Heights Day or Wonderland Day? I went to the festival three times between noon and 4pm and each time there were maybe 25-30 people milling about while in Wonderland there must have been 3 times that number. I should add that all of the live music I heard was fantastic.

But you can see that Wonderland was quite a bit more crowded than the actual festival. Maybe that is because we are just a bunch of lushes but it felt a little funny to me. Maybe next year there should be food/drink vendors on the actual festival site? So what are your thoughts on Columbia Heights Day?

Again, a sweet pic from Susan. I’m so mad I missed this. Did I steer you wrong? An 18 wheeler filled with speakers. Bloody brilliant!


Thanks to Susan for this awesome Pic from the Carribean festival.
