| Mystery Tour (a Beatles Tribute Band) |
The Montville Parks and Recreation department hosted Beatles Tribute Band, Mystery Tour, Sunday August 5th at Camp Oakdale. Admission was free, and a game of corn hole was set up for early arrivals. Originally scheduled for Saturday night, the performance was postponed to Sunday due to thunderstorms the day before.

The turnout was surprisingly low, possibly due to 94 degree heat. However, I wasn't the only die-hard Beatles fan willing to go a.c. free for this event. Neighbors and other town folk showed up as well. We all used the old-fashioned type of air conditioning - shade, readily available under the trees at the edges of the football field. As the evening wore on and the field shaded over, we moved up and closer to center!

It was great fun to sing-a-long with all my old favorite songs. My first introduction to the Beatles was when I was about 5 years old. My friend's teenage sister brought home a Beatles album. Her mother wouldn't let her play that music in the house. However, she did let us go out to the garage with a portable record player, and danced with us! Fun memories!

| Ringo and John? |
Mystery Tour dressed in costume and wigs for most of the show, but when wearing their Sgt. Pepper uniforms became unbearable, the audience was understanding. For more info on Mystery Tour click here.

My husband and I love to dance around the house to music, or I should say - he likes to laugh while I attempt to dance! Below, a young couple doesn't care who is watching, they're dancing and having a great time!
