Concrete leaves and food

Fair food and music

Art Festival


While attending the Brookings Art Festival items and people catch my eye, but it isn't often the art being displayed. When did alligator calamari get to be fair food? Note that "calimari" is misspelled, there is no telling about people who serve alligator in the Midwest.

Downtown Brookings, SD



The next few days I will be posting some images from downtown Brookings. Like all small towns Main Avenue is struggling to find an identity. Many of the major retailers have moved out to malls leaving less downtown less economically strong. Bars, cafes, thrifts, and antique shops seem to dominate these days.
