no go

 I got home very early tonight


    The Jimmy Buffett concert at Alpine Valley was rescheduled due to potentially severe weather.

    I just checked the wether, and there is a thunderstorm active in East Troy right now....which would have been about an hour into the show.

    But it was not a wasted day.

    We rented a pontoon boat, cruised Lake Geneva, had a cookout and got to chat and relax for a while.

    Actually, we cruised Lake Geneva two ways....finding a parking spot was hell.  But the boat ride was a lot of fun and relaxing.

    We had just basically set up chairs, tables, the grill, the tent canopy and were having a nice time.

    Jackie had called earlier and said the venue had called our house and said to keep track on social media because the weather was not looking good.

    Just as we were finishing burgers,  guy came along and gave us the news....show rescheduled Aug. 20.  Security came along and encouraged us to leave, so we packed up eveything and left.

    There were 13 of us.....and we were having a good time.  I got to meet new people, and yes, I did call one person by the wrong name....I do apologize.  And got to visit with people I have not seen since ..... well, a long time ago.

    Of course, the walk around was the high point, but it seemed a lot tamer this year than what I remember past walk arounds to be.  No boob measuring device,  no ice sculptures with anatomically correct male parts,  which distributed something alcoholic. In other words, it was pretty tame.  Lots of guys in coconut bras, girls in skimpy outfits, old folks in tie dyes, pirate flags, and delcious food.  The group ahead of us even brought a blender and was making margaritas!

    It was  fun.

Peace and Love
