    French-fries, Fine Art and Curse of Crowds

    By Neil Ransom | July 1, 2008

    Kate and her fries

    Kate and I went to the SLC Art’s Festival with some friends. By far the best part of the festival was 3 sweet sweet pounds of deep fried glory. I’m so glad potatoes are vegetables. Well we went into the festival thinking it would be more of an art show then an art shopping mall, alas after the French-fries we didn’t have enough money to support any of the artisan vendors. Actually, there was some great art for sale and Kate even ran into two artisans from her home town of Hood River, OR. The only problem with the entire ordeal was the crowd…lets just say it was a giant termite mound the day before matting season. There were so many people it became impossible to actually stop and look at any of the art for fear of being trampled to death. Luckily we survived the crowd and the fries.

      Hey you! How was the big move to Cali? Looks fun at least… I’ll prob be flying through there in September sometime, so I’ll keep you posted and we should link up. Keep up the good work…

      I beg to differ. The best part was the amazing comic book store where I blew almost $50 on sweet sweet Dark Tower graphic novels (thanks again for picking up those two for me, by the way.)
