On Sunday at Greenwoodstock, we had the pleasure of witnessing this work by Cynthia King Dance Company. It was moving and powerful and beautiful. Here's a bit of it.

As always, Greenwoodstock was a fun-filled community affair. Even though smaller than normal, and a tiny bit of rain, many neighbors and friends came to chill and enjoy our neighborhood event. We love KWT!
