Our city had a wonderful Pride Parade this morning and it was a wonderfully festive, positive, and inclusive event. My favorite parade entry was the multi-generational marching band playing Pink Pony Club.

My husband and I were in Paris for the solstice — and the music — a few years ago, and it was just magical. What a fine evening for you and your family!

On my first trip to France/Paris my friend & I stumbled onto this having no idea what was going on. (Before smart phones) It was magical to turn a corner and find yet another band performing in the street and seemingly everyone outside.

Salem, Oregon has celebrated Make Music Day for at least 12 years on June 21. There are free live music concerts on all the stages, in the alleyways, on the sidewalks in front of businesses, and in parking lots. We usually go downtown for a few hours to listen and make chalk art and play our own small musical instruments like kazoos and wood flutes and ocarinas and hand shakers. This year, we were traveling home from vacation on that day.
