winterfest 2008

today we went to southfield winterfest, unfortunately it was raining for most of it, so the outdoors things like making smores and ice sculpting didnt really work out so well. anyway it turns out the camera guy from the newspaper really liked shira because on two seperate occassions he came to me for her name, also i got to meet with the head of the parks and recreation dept and i had a few words with him about our neglected city park. he told me this spring there should be some work done and he would like to have a focus group meeting with my people. there was also a face painter and a clown and a big slide and arts and crafts and music and a hayride and some computer games like the dance game with the arrows, and a Wii, and i think the guitar game that joe zumaya hurt his pitching arm on. it was all free. the kids had a great time. i was also speaking with the director of the whole thing and he said he talked to the jerusalem pizza dude to have kosher food there but they couldnt find someone to sell it :(
anyway all else is good here. oh the rain today is supposed to turn into freezing rain tonight and topped off during rush hour with a nice coating of snow to cover all the ice.
have a good week everyone
