music and art at choochokam arts festival Every July the choochokam arts festival comes to Whidbey Island for the weekend and features arts, crafts, music and food. This year I actually got out and joined everyone in the street dancing. Although I was probably more conservative with my "letting go," it was still quite freeing and surreal. I loved the music by Will West & the friendly strangers and bought both available cds (sunshine and take this moment). street dancing I normally wear sneakers as I walk or ride my bike mostly, but I thought I'd wear sandals that evening. Luckily, I caught a ride after walking a few blocks with the local golf cart commuter, and he took me all the way into town. Hours later, my husband and I walked home from the festival completely revived from the music and festivities. joining 52 photos for this is what I found
