For ten weeks during the summer, Plymouth's Project Arts offers free concerts downtown at the outdoor amphitheater near Plymouth Rock in the Pilgrim Memorial State Park. It was another beautiful summer evening in "America's Hometown" for this event. (Click on an image to view a higher resolution version if your device supports that action).
This statue of Pilgrim William Bradford stands tall in the park in the bright afternoon sunshine. He served as Governor of the fledgling colony multiple times in the early/mid-1600's.
Backstage, sort of, the musicians are setting up their equipment.
The stage is set, the crowd trickles in, the food trucks are ready - it's time for live music!
There's not really a bad seat anywhere - since you get to bring your own.
The Mallett Brothers Band took the stage with a rousing set of tunes. Hailing from the State of Maine, this band is always well received. Simply put, these men have been making music all their lives and are really good.
It didn't take long to attract the youngsters to cavort in the grassy open area in front of the stage.
The Little Compton Band from the nearby State of Rhode Island closed out the evening with an equally talented display of musicianship for the appreciative crowd.
Walking back to my car, the high tide had filled the adjacent harbor.
It was another beautiful summer evening in downtown Plymouth - "America's Hometown."
