The First Fridays Artwalk in Richmond is HOT! And I mean that literally. Gallery 5 had fire artists performing in front of of the building. I know nothing about what they do, but it was awesome to watch. Here are some pics.
Hoopers performed in between the fire burners. Unfortunately, at this point in the evening, the local police came through and told everybody watching that they had to move onto the sidewalks. This left very little room for any more performing.
On the way back to the car, Mark and I noticed one of those "Your Speed" devices which tells you how fast you're going when you drive by. So, because we're goofs, Mark and I ran at it really fast. . . Twice. . . Each time it read that we were going 7 miles per hour. So I tried to catch a pic of the 7 on the sign, but since I was running and taking a pic with my phone, I didn't have the best aim. But I really like the pic anyway:
After my failed attempt at catching a pic of the 7 on the sign, Mark offered to take a pic for me. Unfortunately it seems to need at least 2 people running at the sign to get it to register a speed. But look how blurry I am at the left! I look speedy!
