As I got rear ended coming home from work on route 9 last Friday, and we were going over to

yebo &

zosh’s for game night, I thought “I’ll take the Turnpike and save some time.”
This did not work out as I expected.

The 11 mile drive took me more than 1/2 hour.

But, we got to game night and had a good time. Sadly

cissa was not able to make it, which was very sad. But, she did send

cosmicirony with a very good pie. It is still very sad she couldn’t make it herself.

We played a lot of Dominion.

We also played Nanook.

Jeff was there and brought

yebo a “Wii sword.” I won’t say what I think it looked like....

We had a very good time and got home fairly late. So, we slept in and then headed into Worcester to visit the Art in the Park.

Much like last year, there are a lot of big sculptures distributed around Elm Park.

My wife said she would have liked this one more if it actually had moving parts. But, that would have been MUCH harder to build.

Of course, the park itself is dedicated to people:

This is the only one we couldn’t find:

It was supposed to be processed leafs that were magnetically stuck to things. We never saw one. Maybe people took them home to put on their refrigerators. I just hope it wasn’t counting the trash on the ground.

At first I thought these were ghosts not jellyfish.

This one certainly took up the most space. It went all over the pond.

This one looked like the hammer of a gun to me.

This one looks so different from the program or the web site that I didn’t recognize it.

I saw this one and said “Oh, it’s done in honor of Dr. Robert Goddard who invented liquid fuel rockets here in Worcester.”

But, I guess that was just me...

You could see this one across the whole park. Only the fact it doesn’t move let me know it was a piece of art and not people filling the pond.
