Po Campo and Fringe Launch Party.

Po Campo and I went to the Edmonton Fringe Festival's launch party this evening.

It's a pretty bag for ladies who like to bike in style.

Doesn't necessarily fit in the basket, but it has straps that secure it to your rear rack.

See?

Leanne rode with Don and me. It's always good to check what the cars behind you are doing.

The theme for this year's Fringe Festival is Burlesque. Consequently there was a lot of carnival sort of stuff at the party.

I am in love with this picture. Dexter is super adorable as a pseudo bunny getting pulled out of a hat.

Lots of popcorn in eco friendly containers.

A candy bar.

And what would a burlesque theme be without... some burlesque shows?

Hello!

Country girl.

The showgirls.

And after the entertainment there was people watching.

Good sandals.

The infamous Liz Lepper. She and I used to work together when I used to do arts and entertainment writing for a local independent paper. Liz is a publicity pro.

Dexter is dubious about corn dogs.

Alana made it out with her husband Cary, and baby Cooper!

This brand new mama is looking GOOD. And happy:)

Dan (Nielsen) and Dan (Lazin). It's like the Kris' from last weekend. We also know a lot of Dans.

Cotton candy.

Dexter knows to share.

It was a fun party with fun people. I don't ask for much more.

Looking forward to a great fringe festival! It's an excellent time and really brings Old Strathcona to life. I am definitely planning on taking Dexter to something kid-friendly this year, there are lots of things for kids young and old. If you're in Edmonton, you need to take in a show.
