c'mon baby, do the Locomotion

Tonight we went to see a free concert in the park (specifically Walnut Hill Park in New Britain, CT) by a locally popular band called Locomotion. (Click on their name to go to their website.) Not only is it a very talented band, but an added draw is that a friend of ours is one of the band members. Here's a photo of the bandshell, with the band up on stage.

My kids (in the tie-dyed shirts) having fun on stage with some other kids just prior to the show beginning. In front of the stage is a concrete dance floor, which we used a bit during the course of the evening. (The Map Man and I even got to dance together -- a rare treat! -- in addition to dancing with the kids.)

Once the band took the stage, the kids moved their play to the grassy areas of the park, dividing their time between running around with the gang and hanging out at our blanket with us. In the background the band plays.


My dancing partners! Enjoying a song from our blanket.









Sunset over the park. It was a great way to spend the evening, and we wisely brought toothbrushes and jammies along with us. The kids were asleep long before we got home.
