Doing My Civic Duty
On Saturday I did my civic duty by doing volunteer work for the East Atlanta Beer Fest. Janet and I have been volunteering for this event for about 5 years now. Not only is it really fun, we get to drink some tasty beverages and we do help to raise money for the village. Last year the beerfest commitee was able to give $80,000 in grant money to community projects and organizations in the Village. It's something that keeps our little section on Atlanta strong. It's also a really good time.
Here's some of the day's entertainment, they were a really fun group with a surprising amount of talent for a band named Wasted Potential.

Here are some of the nicest looking port-potties that I have ever seen. I did not, however, go inside of them, volunteers got to use the real rest rooms inside the air conditioned rec center. Another benefit of volunteering.
Since I didn't have a hang-over today I went over to Mudfire for a raku party. All of my pieces were test pieces. I'm really very happy with the results. I should have them posted in a day or two.
