A Rainy Food Truck Friday, and Gallery Hop

Just as the weekend was kicking off, and the trucks were in place for the latest Downtown Winston-Salem Food Truck Friday behind the house, the rains and some storming arrived.

But people merely retreated to their cars for a bit, or whipped out their umbrellas, or sought shelter under the food truck canopies. I watched from the pool table gable window until the rain let up. And then I went for some supper, from the Taqueira El Azteca taco truck.

Then I headed out to Gallery Hop in the Arts District on Trade Street. The rains had pretty much cleared out but you could tell it put a slight damper on the crowds. Still, I got to see some great art and had the bonus of meeting new neighbors who have moved in just down Spring Street. All in all, it was another fantastic Friday night in downtown Winston-Salem, capped off by enough time to relax over some Abita Andygators once I was back at the house.
