We actually woke up early (8:30am) this morning and got down to Farmers Market to beat the crowds...lots of people are in town for the Kinetic Sculpture Race that started today. We got to see a few of the sculptures getting ready for their safety checks. There was everything from a simple snail to a very complex hippo that had moving jaws, ears, and even had someone hanging in the butt area that was playing a marimba. The race will go through Arcata today and will enter Humboldt Bay tomorrow morning. I think we are going to watch the water part of the race...it is always interesting to see how the creators plan to float their sculptures. Well, we are off to a sushi party. Great for my tummy, but not so great for Andy's (he hates fish). As an added bonus for my feet, I get to wear my new boots that I got from Mr. Fluevog after winning "the contest"! Oh how I love these boots! Happy Memorial Weekend!
