World Folk Festival

Last night Ron took me out on a fun date to Springville's World Folk Festival. It featured dancers and musicians from around the world. They included Hungry, Belgium, Poland, China, Korea, Mexico, Polynesia and the USA. Ron REALLY enjoyed watching a guy from China play a very unique instrument that originally made high shrill noises, then he switched to one that made noises resembling that of a duck. He went back and forth between the two and then put them both to the side and made noises that resembled something like a pig squeal from his own mouth. He must have had something in his mouth to cause this to happen. Ron immediately let me know that was his favorite. I liked all of the dancing and the music. It is nice to be able to learn a little bit more about different people and the parts of the world that they come from. I could see this festival becoming an anual Francom tradition.
