so today’s was a bit of a lazy day. We got to the Erie zoo and then we stopped at a flea market / bbq / entertainment event. Several of the bbq folks came and setup trailers that took up an area about 60’ x 30’. They had 2 trailer trucks that simply raised the whole side panels of the trailers and had 6, 8 or 10 burners going full out and barely able to keep up with folks. Entertainment was several local singers, karate demos and more. I’d say some 45 to 60 tents setup between 2 parks and 4 closed off streets.
we had lunch then went and checked out the area, including some shopping malls and grocery stores (weird but I like cool grocery stores) picked up some fresh squeezed orange juice, strawberry / apple juice and 20 cans of chili started for our daughter (and tonight she called and asked us to pick up 10 more).

Tomorrow should bring us a trip to the marine museum and a local donut shop that is suppose to be the only place to get donuts in pa.
