April Showers

Wow, it was raining so hard today that the Northampton Earth Day celebration at Pulaski Park was pretty much a wash-out, despite the stubborn loyalty of stalwarts like WGBY-57 and The River.



Fortunately the downpour seemed to do no damage to the school children's drawings.



Actually it's easier to put up with the rain than the weather we had back in February, as shown by this sample which I captured on King Street.



Now why do I suspect that this statement on the wall of Herter Hall at UMass was written by the cleaning lady?

Jack Kerouac was here.



The recent big musical event in our Valley was last weekend's Extravaganja festival in Amherst. Here's headliner Stephen Fowler and Echo Movement doing their stoner hit I Think God Smokes Weed.
