Other site to follow photos

So I've been a little derelict in posting, but have not stopped putting the camera to work. I intend to keep posting here as I am able. You can see some of my other photos and keep up with one of the biggest things going on with me over at another blog. Visit Hear us, Kay Hagan to keep up with NC DREAM Team's work in getting Senator Kay Hagan to sign on as a co-sponsor of the DREAM Act.

While you're there, please check out our calls to action (or sign this petition) and see how you can help. No action is too small.

Thanks, Blessings, and Peace.

Chicago Arabesque

We were on our way down to the Taste and saw a bunch of tents and people dancing dabke. Naturally, we pulled over at the first available spot and wandered into Chicago Arabesque. Some photos of the festivities below, mostly from the Arabica store's tent.

"Hey man, take a picture!"
I'm not sure why the rosary was on the hookah, but it looked pretty cool like this....
Some more things for sale from Arabica
"Eeeeeyyyyyyywaaaaah!"

Street performers practicing their trade. Pretty impressive, I gotta say....
Drumming, drumming, don't forget to leave some cash!

Nady in the 'go

My birthday weekend consisted of driving up to Chicago to celebrate with my Gujjulicious friend Hanit. During some of the downtime, Nadienka and I took the chance to wander around Chicago taking some photos. Here are a few shots of Nadienka in the city we love :-)
One day....
