Wet and Muddy Comfest

June 29, 2008 | Filed in: Messy, Outside, Photography, circus

The Grimaldi Circus took the stage a bit later than scheduled. They made it about 10 minutes into their performance when the winds kicked into high gear and they were told to cut the show as a bad storm was a comin’. And boy did it come. The skies opened up and pounded festival goers with a steady hard rain. It didn’t take long for someone in the crowd to slide down the muddy bowl. And it took even less time for about 60 other people to follow.

Jake joined in the mud sledding too. But he had to take it a step further.

Ahhh youth!

Happy Comfest!

Great photos! Found your blog from your tweet to this post on my Tracking for Columbus page. http://twitter.zappos.com/Columbus Send me a tweet if you want to be added to the list. I’m @wyliemac

Those are the best pictures EVER! How much do I love your son???

Holy cow, Kristen, those pictures are awesome! That first one needs to be on the front page of The Dispatch.

Actually, screw The Dispatch, those pics need to go national. Seriously.

I agree, great pics!! We miss you guys, hope to see you soon! We’ve been working.

Wow, I nearly got motion sickness from that first photo… it’s excellent Great photos and I love the one of your son throwing himself into the water!

this is a fantastic photo, but I can’t help but think about how these folks are tearing up the turf….

[...] looking forward to next year. Btw, you want to see an AMAZING photo from Comfest. Taken by one of the Comfest photographers, she rocks, she rolls she kicks [...]

Hey, Mollie linked to this!

Yes, totally awesome pics!

found you through fish food blog (http://msmollie.wordpress.com/). GREAT photos! wish i lived closer.

GREAT photos - fantastic material this year, I agree. Our collective lament is that we while so fabulous to see, folks sledding on slopes and swimming in puddles destroyed the grass. ComFest will be restoring the damage in the park but it will take time. We don’t think most folks even think about who will fix this kind of stuff, but these are the things that cause us problems when going to license the event in future years. Please help us share with everyone that we need to be kind to our parklands - in situations like this they are very fragile.
Thanks and those photos rock big time!
