What a wet n wild start Saturday morning! As we neared Gladstone the rain died down and the sky cleared some, even the sun peaking out! It was awesome to see Wayne at Kick Ass Country Store in Plumas for our quilting fix and a quick visit with Pat Orr.
We're here again out in the back woods at Reedy Creek for the 16th Annual Asham's Stomperfest for the day, featuring Michelle Wright this evening! First picture is of one of the teams in the World Aboriginal Square Dance Competition held at this time!
Watching from mid afternoon to supper the various ages of The Lorne Monkman World Jugging Championships. We took another walk around the camper sites and out to the gate before retuning. Saw the company setting up for fireworks and the fire truck arriving.
Now the Metis Club Traditional Dancers are performing and free dancing before evening performances.
We enjoyed a yummy pickeral fry supper too! Awesome entertainment started 7:30 pm from Michelle Wright! And listening to the dancing music afterwards, but not me!
What an awesome finale for us at Stomperfest! See Arnold Asham invited all previous Asham Stompers to perform at a reunion dance this evening! This was the first time for some 30 plus on stage at once. I felt sorry for the band as they kept jigging and square dancing for at least half an hour!
Arnold Asham dancing too!
At the end they were accompanied by fireworks stage side, then a spectacular background fireworks too!
Lightening storms joining the fireworks!
The fireworks spider is coming to getcha!
A group photo of all for all!
Thank you Asham Stompers!!!
It was sooo loud and close that my legs threatened to collapse on me, heart pounding, some guy made room so I could brace myself against the table. Now if that wasn't enough, a lightening storm joined the display. Edna promplty started gathering our supplies and off we scampered in the dark to the car at 10:40 pm and on our way home through a half hour heavy downpour and drizzle off n on, me getting home 2:15 am! Glad I've nothing on tomorrow!
