Lexington BBQ Festival

Sweetz and I went to the Lexington BBQ Festival today.  What started out to be a chilly morning, turned into a beautiful 75* afternoon at the festival.  Here are some shots I took today -- Well, maybe/maybe not since the photo upload function isn't working properly.  But I'll try to add a few more photos a bit later.



Lots of people up and down the road.  And let me tell you...it was quite a day for people watching.  All shapes, sizes, clothing and everything else in between!



Classic cars...a vintage camper nestled among a Mustang, Fairlane, Model A and lots of other beautifully maintained cars.  Owners sat next to them and reminded the lookers to not touch - they are definitely the babies of these proud parents.



I didn't take any pictures in this camper but it was adorable inside - decorated in the 50s red/black/white theme with lots of Coke items.
crab cake sandwiches...



A rifle used as a gear shift in one of the classic cars...


Sweetz had to have his ice cream fix - always chocolate, of course...



A cobra under the hood of a Cobra classic car...



Jewelry from bottle caps...



And a creative team creating a huge sand sculpture...


We skipped the typical BBQ and crab cake sandwiches because of the never-ending lines.  We ate in one of the downtown diners (Noah's), seated at a vintage table at the front window where we munched on delicious sandwiches while we watched the crowd stream up and down the vendor displays.  It was a nice day to be out and about on a beautiful fall day.
