The Coffee House

We had a driver model glamper back in the 80s. Had Dodge running gear. Couldn't pass a gas station.

That makes me feel better...

James Taylor in concert, that sounds good! and probably will sound good!

You mean they lock people in with the kids?!!!! lol jk It's a good idea to have that sort of event, I'm just glad I don't have to do it! Been a long time since I taught jr. high and babysat at a school dance. Actually it was kind of fun while it lasted, but there's probably a reason I went from that to babies & toddlers for 20+ years.

I don't know JC... not been sounding so good, hope at least you can get out and enjoy some photography while you're camping/glamping. I used to work at summer camp, went camping with friends at our local state park all the time, but my later travels involved a nice bed, cable TV, minifridge, room service a phone call away... I'd at least want a cabin. My days of tents and pop up campers that almost got backed over the edge of the Smoky Mtns are over (and there's a reason they call them Smoky!).

Now I want some strawberry ice cream. I'll have to suffer thru with something chocolate instead.

Done with the food prep for the evening event. From the Hollywood Bowl Cookbook ... Sweet and Sour Meatballs. But Gary is using ground turkey instead of beef and a ton of seasoning/herbs for some flavor. Gary has made these before and they are quite good.

Happy National Doughnut Day to everyone in the USA!

Have I told you guys about Grad Night? Grad Night is an event after our city's high school graduation that has turned one of the most dangerous night's for HS seniors into a safe and fun party. After the ceremony, most families go out to dinner or off to some local parties but the kids don't drink because they want to come to the Grad Night party at the school later that night. All seniors are brethalyzed on the way in and must be at the party by midnight. It's an all night event with casino games, a dj, magic show, food, bouncy things like Wipe Out or the sumu wrestling suits... everything from a baby farm animal petting zoo to a cash cube where they get in and grab at the money flying around. The night ends with breakfast served by some of the parents of the senior class. The whole thing is 100% free for the students to attend - all of the money is raised by the Grad Night committee from local businesses and personal donations from residents. Attendance rate is usually above 90%. It's a great event and I'm proud to be a part of it this year. I'm on the volunteers committee in charge of recruiting enough people to run the whole night and clean up afterwards. Tomorrow night is the big night. I'll be there from 8pm through 5am directing our volunteers and making sure things run smoothly (and have to be awake/alert for this ).

This sounds awesome - hope the kids realize how lucky they are to have something this memorable, while being totally safe. You and the organizers rock! Good luck, and I hope it's at least sorta fun for you.

She bought one... spent all my cash but will pay it off on the first bill. It does look nice, can't wait to pee in the sink and poop in the tank... I'm not even going to hide it. It actually has a closet where I can develop, she actually pointed that out and to my surprise, I agree. I guess I am pretty special after all. I gotta put the hitch on the diesel, clean the connections, etc. I am a hampy camper now. I am a man of God, can I say....

If you use the tank, you have to pump it out. Use the outhouse but not at dusk. You won't be alone.

Both are beautiful cameras.

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. Last night was wonderful. Cheryl Crow warmed up for James Taylor and she was fun and entertaining. JT has such an intimate performance that one feels it is singing directly and only to you. Paul Simon was a maestro ... inspiring and emotional. Taylor was like having a fine wine, comfortable and in your hand. It was a great evening of very delish Hollywood Bowl Cookbook turkey meatballs and a Thornton Champagne (Sweet Angel's Waltz), performances which will never fade away, perfect weather, in the best outdoor venue in the world. Gary wishes all of you could have shared the evening with Mary Lou and Gary.
