When the carnival came to town

Small town Carnival - New Carrollton MD
Night at the Carnival in New Carrollton MD

A carnival visited New Carrollton, MD several years ago one hot summer night.  There is something about carnivals and night-time.   The lights and the darkness.  I can still smell the food and see the people trying their hands at the games to win prizes.  I remember summers in the south and how it was a big deal when the carnival came to town.

This location used to host a Toys ‘R Us which had been destroyed by a storm.  Now it’s the location for a bank and a drug store.
