It's Coming - Hide the Kids

Hey it's fun but it's a distraction none the less...it's Summerfest time! Impromptu parades that interrupt the neighborhood, lots of drinking and way too much gyrating...but you can't stop it. There are events for the next several weeks, filled with music, beer, parades, more beer, madness, mayhem, animal sacrifice...maybe not the animal sacrifice part. And don't you know that it coincides with exams. How much fun can a medical student have?

The more interesting thing about Summerfest is the costumes. Seems that some work on these objects of fashion for many months preceding the events. No wonder! Probably takes several trips to St. Maarten, and Duggins Market (upstairs of course) to get everything you need to create one. They are masterpieces of how to reveal as much skin as possible without being naked. They seem to fuel the sexual energy that pervades the event. And age has no limit....even the young are all decked out. And they wonder why the teenage pregnancy rate is soaring.

Ah, Summerfest...just another island excuse to not have to go to work, drink beer from green bottles and wander around half naked.
