Another week gone by. Why do the weekends go faster? Well the last 10 days have gone quickly, as I have not had an update. Lot’s of good times. Weather has been a little up and down, but we try to make the most of it. Last weekend was a little cloudy and cool. But we made it to the Oshkosh farm market downtown Saturday morning. And I spent time planting flowers the girls bought for me the day before. Trying to catch up around the house, and the garden seems to be off to a good start. A little weeding this weekend is in order. Monday night we took Marie for a long boat ride into town. Had a beer and then back out for a ride. The weather was predicted for colder and rain the next days so I wanted to get the ride in.
Wednesday night was my SOB meeting, the girls came to pick me up but stayed for awhile! So Thursday, luckily I was very busy with work and did not have time to get tired! And Thursday night we went down to Waterfest in downtown Oshkosh. The Thursday night music concerts. The first band we knew, Tin Sandwich, plays Chicago blues to great Santana. And my good friend Mike plays bass and does vocals. The second band was not very good and we scattered at that point. Chris and Marie headed home and I headed to a local establishment with other friends who were not thrilled with the band. At that point my lack of sleep started to kick in. So when I headed to the car I heard some of the headliner at Waterfest that night, Dennis DeYoung from Stix’s. Sounded good but I made the better decision to head home as much as I wanted to hear more.
Tonight a good Wisconsin fish fry, which Marie topped off with a blue tail fly! Tomorrow to Milwaukee for awhile, then home to hopefully get back in the garden and to house projects. So hope all are doing well and enjoying life. Have a fun weekend!
The highlight of our week was to make a trip down to Potawatmi Casino. Not for gambling but to hear Don and Steve Meissner playing in one of the bars. That is quite a place. We never realized how big it was. Gary Frank went along with us.
Get this! Steve, Don and Chris Dozak flew to Michigan this morning to play for a graduation party. They are one of two bands playing. I would like to know who is paying that bill. So we are dog sitting for our Granddog.
LOOKS AND SOUNDS LIKE YOU ALL ARE HAVING A GREAT TIME. SURE LOOKS LIKE MARIE IS IN HER GLORY. ENJOY.
Nice pics. I will make sure John sees the one of him and Pete. 🙂
Happy Father’s Day!
