Great shots, Howard.  They have on in Spokane, too.  I found out about it 
after the fact last year, and this year they shortened it so by the time we 
got back from our fall trip it was over.  Drat.  Glad you were able to see 
it.

The Booth Amphitheatre in nearby Cary, NC, is the venue for the second year 
of something called the Chinese Lantern Festival, a product of a Chinese 
firm. The main feature is dozens of installations of figures created from 
fabric over wire frames and illuminated from within by LEDs. I don’t know 
whether this is a modernization of some Chinese traditional art or festival, 
or a purely commercial creation, but it’s impressive to walk through at 
night. There are some nice photo ops:
