I like bars. I’m generally pretty jolly. And for a few weeks each year, I like pumpkins. So I’m happy to hear that The Brickyard is getting a new neighbor. The Jolly Pumpkin is opening a Main Street location within the next couple of months. Can’t wait to try it out and update the arborwiki [...]
Okay, my attempts at an Art Fair Time Lapse pale in comparison to this. Nice job, Jay!
Vendors prepare for another day under cloudy skies. Fortunately for art fair patrons it will be a little cooler today, but the tradeoff is a slighly increased chance of rain. Like it ever rains during art fair…

Set-up has already begun: streets are closed to traffic, organizers are setting up the tents and early bird vendors are unloading their wares.
Because we are going to [...]
General announcement for all you Brickyard fans out there. Saturday, May 17th is Brian Kerr’s birthday. We were going to bake him this cake, but you see, well, er, what happened was, we realized we didn’t want to rip off somebody else’s good idea. So we’ll probably just opt for beers.
Check back for date/time of [...]
It’s 4:30 on Friday…not quite time to go home but too late to start on anything new. I can’t convince anybody to go sit outside and enjoy a beer so I’m stuck here with lots to do but no motivation to do it.
I’ve gotten a lot of questions lately (okay, two) about what really happens [...]
