Pittsburgh delivered some nice summer vibes this weekend. Had a blast yesterday at the Juneteenth and Black Music Festival. Saw the coolest US Civil War reenactment group, ate delicious food, got a chance to wear my favorite romper, danced tipsy on summer wine.

This was part of the live R&B set. They also had DJs and covered a wide range of styles and eras.

Here’s another great picture from the historical society. A staged scene with modern players and members of the US Civil War reenactment group photographed to look like the 1800s.

Serving some fine and single rich auntie summer festival lewks.

And yes, I had loads of silly fun and did some goofy dancing.
