oktoberfest

yes that special festive fungus had boynton on a local-variety-of- Oktoberfest quest, and I was quite surprised to see that it's on again this weekend at the Showgrounds. Heard nothing of the yodel or Schuhplattler out this way. About 10 years ago boynton suddenly rang up a radio station and won two tickets to the event. We chose to go at a slow hour. Sausages and steins were being consumed rather folornly in a dark hall in the lull, and boynton wasn't inclined to join the groups of serious junge steiners at their trestles settling in for the afternoon, but enjoyed sampling the Austrian dancing and the Swiss fare and always planned to return.

kaleidoscopic : Can you find Security? According to the map of the Venue you'll find it in the Holzhackerbaum stadium

Sounds vaguely hintish. I went in 1999. Festive it was, in a grim way.

hintish? neinish.
we'll hold off the steinish for another year,
although I may of course grow vaguely yodelish myself.
