Symphony in Deer Lake Park

Here's a little glimpse of this year's VSO Symphony in the Park at Deer Lake Park in Burnaby. Last summer Dana and I attended for the first time and so this summer we set out for round two. This year we were more prepared and with elbows sharpened and up we set forth straight to the front of the park where we shimmied ourselves into a front row seat. Easy as pie. Once again a wonderful evening of music, food, portable bathrooms, and people watching.

Captivating!

The Score

It got a bit too loud for some...

The ladies of the strings stand to receive their praise.
