Earlier this month I caught this horrendous cold that literally flattened me the first few days. (The cold lasted around three weeks and I’m only recently starting to feel human again.) I was tired so much of the time that I managed to miss out on this year’s Utopia Film Festival. I managed to go to the Oktoberfest celebration that was held in the basement of St. Hugh of Grenoble Catholic Church in Greenbelt, Maryland where I ate some good German food and took a few pictures of the festivities.

They had an accordion player who not only played polka music but he also had an extensive repertoire of Abba music. Seriously! I shot a video of him playing the songs “Waterloo,” “Take a Chance on Me,” and “Dancing Queen.”
