Weekend

Ventured to the Ren Fest this weekend outside of Plantersville, have heard about it for years but have always found an excuse for not going.

This year I braved it and so out I went on opening day.

As I pulled into the parking spot (grass) and called the friends I was meeting I peered around to see nothing but people in costume. Not sure if they were are a part of the activities or just people showing up to check it out I kept to myself. Lucky for me some normal looking people were also here for the first time and as confused as I on how to find the ticket gate. We overheard someone asking and followed the crowd.

Lets say if you can survive the parking lot and walking to the gate you can survive what awaits you inside for it is not much worse.

Enjoyed every minute of it, laughed with friends/watched some shows/watched some freaks (sorry) and saw amazing fireworks at the end of the day.

Getting out fo my truck after driving home I could barely walk but after some juice and sleep I was great today.

So my thought is this, even when you think you have seen all there is or if you fear what lies ahead just push forward and let yourself venture out of the comfort zone now and again.

Little Sister

Today I took time to catch up on reading my little sister's blog page, she has such an amazing talent for writing and so I read. I smiled, I had a few tears develop and most of all I felt connected to her through her writing.

Sadly due to distance from her home to mine the visits are not frequent however there are the weekly phone calls and occasional e-mails back and forth but she is always in my heart.

This first entry is to my sister Angie to let her know though comments may not always be made her blog is read not only by me but also a friend of ours. Shame on neither of us for letting her know of such so today I am, right here/right now.

Love you Sis!!
