Lee’s Summit Downtown Days

There were close to 200 vendors, food galore including greek, fried twinkies, fried oreos, big french fry loaf, BBQ, Chartroose Caboose, and Cafe Jerusalem. One of my favorite vendors was Francis Metal Works, LLC. They make ducks, herons, and other water fowl out of metal and rocks. The rocks are their bodies. I had to bring one home and put it by my front door so when I return I will see my big rock friend. When it rains the rock turns a little different color and I also think that was cool. Easy to please! (Not really) We had a booth at the festival and we could hear the jet pack man who flies with a pack on his back. It is super loud but so were the bands. One band was playing ACDC and this band that was copying them was called KCDC. They also had bands that played 80’s music (they were good), dance troops you name it the stage was always full of good entertainment. There was a car show. One car was lavender and it was so close to the ground I don’t know how they drove it. I wondered as I walked by if these cars ever got parked some where where some one would likely ding their perfect doors. I would be scared to drive one! There was also a motorcycle show from Gail’s Harleys. That girl does some good business! My sister had a booth there too with the House of Denmark who has been in business for 37 years. All the furniture is made in Denmark, Germany, and Italy. Some cool stuff! A couch can become a bed. Look at their webstie www.houseofdenmark.com I think next year we will stay in the cool air-conditioning and not do another booth. Too many hours and too hot for me! (I’m a big baby!)
