Smoke on the Water, 2009

    Smoke on the Water is a growing tradition in Washington, North Carolina that began as a food festival, and then spontaneously grew into a music festival, an antique car festival, a fall festival, and just a reunion of sorts for Beaufort County residents.

    Click on the map above for a huge view of central northeastern North Carolina.

    I came down to the festival about midday to get a pictorial view of the events to relate to you, our growing readership, and later that afternoon at its closure, and to record that which the event organizers had no control of: The sunset upon the Pamlico River. For those of you that have visited this series; you know the drill.

    Our Pictures await here below:

    This colorful antique car show does improve the view on the waterfront south side of the buildings of downtown Washington on the waterfront.

    An eclectic mix of local talent entertaining the crowd. A number musicians performed that day: Above and below. Stay tuned for a rundown.



    Examining the fine, colorful automobiles of yesteryear: Above and below.



    Folks love a parade, but I do believe they love an antique car show just about as much: Above and below.





    It's not a DeLorean, but that does not keep this curious kid from trying to go "Back to the Future:" Above. More cars of color, but is that Chevrolet eating that kid: Below.
