May Day, May 1, 2005CE Minneapolis, MN
The annual May Day Parade, sponsored by In The Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre, is quite the thing. This year, the temperature was very cold but the parade went on! I took a bunch of pictures of the parade, some of the celebration/picnic at Powderhorn Park. Note the sequence of the Sun battling the Wind.
