Fire and Ice Festival, Mt Holly, NJ Part 2

This is the fire part of the Festival...
I posted on the ice here.
I love that this part was held in the old town Fire House.
Check out the dates on the corners...that's pretty old by USA standards

 

Inside the fire house was a Chili Competition.
Here you see they are prepared in case things got a little too hot!

 

After the judging was finished
the public was welcome to circle around
and taste all the entries.



Mmmmmm, yum



My personal favorite was called 'Biker Chili.'
It was a complex mix of peppery flavors with a kick.
And check out the 'bike' he is serving it from



Out and about there was a lot of other things going on.
Here are some of my favorite shots.

Smallest dog I have ever seen...under 2lbs.



A lady stilt walker who juggles too.



A few reenactors from the Revolutionary  War.



Balloons are always fun.



Music from the storefront.



Dog sled demos
