Great concert! and other stuff (kinda late)

Wow, what a great concert last (oops, Wednesday) night. Who knew Randy Travis had such a great sense of humor? The man put on a wonderful show despite the heat and allergans in the air that had him, as he said "sounding like Mr Haney from Green Acres". He sounded great to us and the rest of the packed audience. For those of you who have never seen him (about half of the audience) he has 8 guys in his band who are all excellent and he sang for an hour and a half straight. Good times for sure.

Have to say thanks to Keith who was kind enough to mention this blog in his latest post. I will be sure to post updates about the new job as soon as I start. Hard to believe that as of tonight (Thursday), I will no longer be working at the REC after 12 years. I am looking forward to a new adventure. Should also be losing some inches since the new job will be active, not just sitting at a terminal.


Oh yes, one more thing. The Northern California Renaissance Faire starts next weekend. I have worked there the last two years and last year my daughter was a groom for the jousters. She had decided not to go this year but found out today that her favorite horse has some health problems and needs her to come make him feel better. This is just a tiny little horse, mind you, 19.3 hands or for those of you who don't do horse talk, 79 inches high at the shoulder! Yes, you read that correctly, King is 6'7" at the top of his back!!

Okay, you can see by the notes in parentheses the updates I made cuz this was supposed to be posted last Friday. Now to the current info: we did go to Hollister and it was wayyyyy toooo hot! Worked with the horses and I also did some painting for one of the food booth owners. I know I will end up with at least one free dinner there and I like to earn my keep.


Still haven't learned to do links yet but I promise it is coming. That was one of my plans for this weekend before we decided to head to Hollister and the last weekend of prefaire at Casa de Fruta. Pictures coming soon of knitting (thanks for the comment Lori). I have finished Clue 6 of MS3, swatched today for Hanami, and need to get swatching for Secret of the Stole. Oh yeah, also need to start my new job tonight. Will let you know how that is going tomorrow. In the meantime, enjoy the big blue eyes of Dora, our rescue kitty. After all Another Bandwagon must include the "Must have kitty pictures in blog" bandwagon, mustn't it?
