I was happy to be outside enjoying music on another summer evening, though the cool fog of Mill Valley wasn't nearly as pleasant as yesterday's warmth in Castro Valley. Seeing that I expected it to be cold, and dressed appropriately, the weather wasn't much of a thing, and dancing around near the plentiful propane heaters helped a lot too!

I'd say there were as many as a hundred people there at the peak, first set, but the number definitely tapered as the night wore on.

It was fun watching the kids rock out on the pirate ship play structure – both the posers and the twirlers!

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
