The grand opening of the Milwaukee Public Market was quite grand. The outdoor farmers’ market there has been open weekends since mid summer, and now the building has been completed and the indoor shops are open. On Saturday the place was packed.

The Saturday night filk at Barisha’s was fun, as usual. It was a good night for minimally-rehearsed new material. I’d found out about [livejournal.com profile] aryana_filker‘s song The Willow from [livejournal.com profile] allisona’s LJ just a day before, but since I’m already familiar with the tune from all the parodies of it I sing I was able to introduce it to the Milwaukee group. They liked it a lot. They were probably glad I didn’t use Kanef’s crapping geese lyrics, or my every-shipwreck-song-ever-all-rolled-into-one-horrible-mass version. [livejournal.com profile] anach wasn’t present to provide death, death, and more death, but Barisha said that I partly filled that gap with Warren Zevon’s Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner. Joe really liked that.

Sunday was a good day for riding a bicycle with trailer to the organic foods co-op. Not that you, whoever you are, necessarily should have traveled to Milwaukee from Illinois or Winnipeg or wherever just to ride around with a trailer full of soy milk. But it was a nice day.
