This week was the Washington Park Summer Festival. I finished up work early today to head to the park with Jasmine. We scouted out the amphitheater, it was already filling up even one and half hours before showtime. But we still had time to browse the Rose Garden and recreate at the big playground down the hill.
We strategically set up camp center stage and enjoyed the DJ bali hits blasting from the speakers while watching the dancers warm up. They are certainly quick flexible and strong – one guy did a head stand literally with only head and shoulders – his hands and arms were pointing skyward.
This was our first time seeing the troupe NW Dance Project. And there was also a banjo musician thrown in for good measure. Gotta love Portland.
