Here are some pictures my friend Shana took at the Fremont Fair and parade this spring (2001). The Fair is a summer solstice celebration. "Funky Fremont" fancies itself the Center of the Universe. I don't know about that, but it's been the center of many of our Saturday nights! The Fremont Fair and parade are known for the mass participation and intricate (and outlandish) costumes (or lack thereof, such as the Naked Bicyclists!). These pictures give some of the flavor of this iconic Seattle event.

Support the Monorail! I don't know if it'll ever be built, but maybe it won't involve tearing down my house! |
