~A Carnival in Parkville~

~And then a Riverfest Next!~

After the Parade... on into the Carnival...

These pics were from several different Carnivals in the park, but it seems it's always the same rides...

For the 4th of July event, the midway runs down lower Main Street...

This was a rainy start for this day... Some sprinkles but the Parade was not rained out...

And it seems that we almost always have the same group of Vendors for every event...

A sparse crowd on this misty morning...

And watch out for the puddles... A pretty good rain earlier in the morning...

This time part of the Carnival was located in one of the baseball fields at the West end of the Park...

Despite the weather the crowd picked up as the sky brightened some...

A different Carnival day.. This time most of the rides were in the Parking lot area of the Farmer's Market...

It looks like I came too early in the morning... No one showed up yet...

Back on the rainy day again... Or they moved the Ferris Wheel... This one looks a bit smaller though...

I really wanted to get some pics at night, but always come up with some excuse...It's too hot.. It's too late.... I'm too tired...

But most of the action is after dark... the lights, the music and the large crowds...

WOW! Were there that many Ferris Wheels there? Or do I just like to take a lot of pictures of them?

But there is always room for one more picture... I bet the Operators would sure like to have more riders on this one...

A brighter day and the Carousel is in the parking lot instead of the Baseball field and surer footing...

Parking is scarce in Downtown Parkville on a busy day anyway and even harder to find when they block off the entire Farmer's Market lot... (but I know a good place, just a couple blocks away)

A quiet morning before the Crowd shows up... Here you can see the Park College Administration building in the far background...

The ever popular Carousel, this a smaller one but it is serving the purpose for the kids...

Sometimes Mom has to get on and help out...

One more ride on the Carousel and then we are off to a Riverfest...
