Inspired by a few lines by an old folk song writer the PAX set out to experience a taste of summer with the Ferris Wheel. Thanks Joni Mitchell for the lyrics stuck in my head… “Moons and Junes and ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way that you feel” Both Sides Now

Here is how it went down, After 20 SSH to allow late arrivers to collect the PAX left on a short mosey up Starmount Drive to adjacent field. As the gloom began to rise the deer, raccoons, herrin and bats present during setup were other places as 28 PAX rolled onto the pitch.
