Google on Main and other things

Google has apparently incited a competition nation wide for cities to attract their oh so fantastic google fiber to be placed in their cities as a test location. Greenville came up with their way to entice google by making a human glow stick "Google". Why am I, who is not thrilled with technology, mentioning this? Because Case and Amelia were a part of it. They were both in the little "g". Amelia at the very bottom tip and Case a the very top. Here is video of it on You tube:

There were 2000 people making up the "Google" and many, many more had come downtown to watch.



The photo is not mine. It was uploaded to the Facebook page by Aaron Von Frank. Hope he doesnt mind me putting it here so the family can see.

This participation in google on main actually stemmed from Brian and the kids going to Another event greenville does durign good weather months on fridays on Main St. downtown called , what else? Friday on Main. They met some of the people Brian tweets with (another techy thing I am not into and followed it up with a visit to BaRley's taproom with Eric and Aaron Verhoeven, some friends from homeschooling.
