Kent, Ohio turns into a street carnival for Heritage Days. Kent State had a booth sharing the upcoming football season. You can see one of the several stages for the performers, singers, bands and dancers.

Here is a street performer walking on stilts.

You can see a fire department ladder behind the tents.

Here is a look down the food area. This is the center of town the crossing of Main and Water Street.

There were a lot of people having a good time.

I'm a little late today with this tough subject. Christine really got us this week and Mac is gone again. I decided to show what can cause chaos in the city neighborhood. I looked out the back window and saw an animal with a gray squirrel  in its mouth. I thought it was a coyote but rethought it as a red fox. It went right around the front of the house and up the street. 

It was lucky there were no kids out playing.

I do hope it was a red fox.

It was on the street.

Here is some chaos from a spinning wheel.

Here is Sam giving it a spin.

Here is our pup. She is a 7 pound Black Pomeranian by the name Jelly Bean. She is really the wife's dog unless she wants petted by me. She is a herder and always tells me where to go. She likes a lot of attention.

She was my daughters dog and she named her. They got a Burmese Mountain dog named Rolo. Do you see a theme? 

Jelly Bean stays with my wife and doesn't let my wife out of her sight. 

She just lays around and waits for my wife to get home.

I was golfing with my son and grandsons when I heard a sound in a pine tree. What is that?  I've heard that sound before so I looked into the pine. I could see this wing.  

 What is that? I got a look at it face on. What big eyes you have.

Why it that, why it's a cicada.

They area homely critter.

I did enjoy meeting this insect.
