Last Sunday afternoon, I attended the Maitland Rotary Art Festival.
Maitland exists next to North Orlando. On the way to my Peacock Room Happy Hour gig, I drive though here and pass by Lake Lily, the spot where the festival takes place every year.
There’s a fall festival and and a spring festival in Maitand. Surprisingly, someone recognized me as DJ Stone Crazy during a spring festival.
As for the art, I didn’t get many photos. Besides, some artists give non-friendly looks towards people photographing their work.
Because I rarely carry much money on me, I avoided buying food.
Usually, I head for the booze.
After viewing the festival, I walked to Maitland Library’s book sale.
For a dollar, I bought these two literary gems.
That’s right, two great books for a dollar.
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson, the freaky Swedish mystery.
Smack by Melvin Burgess, known as Junk in other countries.
As I read these books, I know just the music to listen to, especially since Smack takes place in Bristol, England.
Tricky, the king of trip-hop from Bristol.
Like I mentioned earlier, Maitland hosts a fall festival and a spring festival. A book sale happens during the spring festival also. I’m looking forward to the spring.
