What you missed last night if you weren't in Burlington, Vermont.

There was something for everyone: Slinky dancers in Contois, a Taize Prayer for World Peace, Old Time music at the College Street Congregational Church following the hot chili supper there, a hand-bell ensemble, Circus Smirkus, poetry slams and banjo playing and printmaking. Two fireworks shoot-offs were scheduled, the Vermont Youth Orchestra was at the Flynn Center and a drums and dragons parade snaked along the Marketplace to City Hall Park. And there was food, plenty of food. Amir's Kebab Stand had a line. It advertised: "New Fries. New. Eat them you'll want more of them."
