Bloco em Foco was there!
Live music and dancing

Too bad it was raining but at least we didn’t have to deal with hail (like in Greeley) or flooding (like in Johnstown) . We actually had a great time at the festival except some of the food trucks were forced to leave for not having the proper permits (Boulder has strict laws– I’m sure we broke some noise laws as well?)
Hey, it’s Temple Grandin!
Dr. Grandin loves the maker movement!
Temple Grandin was in this weekend to sign copies of her new book “Calling All Minds: How to Think and Create Like an Inventor”. And so was the Fort Collins Creator Hub!

Here are our wonderful performers!
From the awards show (maybe) for best picture category
This is the cast from the movie “The Making of a Giant Stepp” which was entered into the 4th round of the 48 hour film fest, which means that some of us stayed up all night editing a really goofy but perhaps funny six and a half minute movie. If anything, we should at least get an award for “Oldest Team on the planet”. Who knows?
Oh Boy, this is going to be GREAT!

The premier of “The Making of a Giant Stepp” won’t be until the FoCo Fringe Festival sometime end of July, but just to warn you we have decided to include a stop-motion scene to the “48 Hour Movie Festival” simply because the organizers said they have yet to see stop-motion in any of the entries to date.
Well, the weather was great!

And some of the performers
This was another Alexandria performance (4 sets total over a 2 day period). When you add up the time it takes to haul all that equipment to the Devil’s Backbone Open Space in Loveland, Colorado, put up the tent, take it down after the show, provide refreshments for the crew and dancers we probably made about $2/hour per person– But it was worth it!
