Every year Arlington has "Town Day" when they shutdown Mass Ave, and all sorts of vendors open up booths. We went last year, and got the chance to see what's going on in our town. East Arlington, feeling left out I guess, has a "Feast of the East" every summer.
Compared to Town Day, the feast was pretty lame. It was basically a massive open-house of all the shops along Mass Ave in East Arlington. Laura and I took a quick stroll through it, and were about to leave when we ran into Russ & Christina and Jeff & Kim. We all decided to have a quick lunch at the Arlington Diner, which was decidedly unfulfilling. That place is great for breakfast, but the lunch menu was only so-so (and very vegetarian unfriendly I might add).
I like the way this photo of Russ and Christina came out. I tweaked the lighting and colors in Picasa, as usual, but I think as a "candid portrait" this came out really well.


heh, I was wondering when one of us would mention the Feast of the East weekend. I have a half-finished entry about it that hasn't been published yet b/c I had to pay tribute to birthdays and anniversaries all week long. Stay tuned.
