Random Stuff

I went to the concert in the park with Donna on Saturday night. Josh Gracin and Darryl Whorley played for the "Tribute to Our Troops"-themed Pony Express Days final event for Eagle Mountain. Now, on the way to the park I was listening to Matchbox Twenty. I admit I took advantage of no kids in the car and was blasting it....loudly. The only reason I mention this is a.) I want to see a Matchbox Twenty concert and b.) I am a new fan of Josh Gracin.

In other news, there were a surprising number of strange people who went to this concert. I was rather inspired. I had an epiphany in the middle of one of the songs and had to dig my pen and 3x5 cards out of my purse to write it down. Unexpected, but I'll take it.

And lastly, I really really really miss my husband! I've been here in Utah for 2 1/2 weeks and it's time for me to go home. Thank you to my family and Donna's family for putting me and my kiddos up all this time! Thank you to my writing group for hanging with me while I've been here; Donna, DJ, Debbie, Linda and Kirk, you all are the best!

  1. If you miss your husband, you can always borrow mine...

    Kidding, Kidding!

    I'm sure I can speak for everyone when I say it has been great to have you around the last couple of weeks. You will be missed when you leave.

  4. I will miss you too. When do you leave? I'm thinking 2010 Steve and I may plan to crash your house for Hot August Nights or the Rib Cookoff (Or are they at the same time?)

  5. I'll have to check, but I think Hot August Nights is the big car convention where all these cool old and new cars descend on Reno for the entire weekend. (You'd like it, Graham). The Rib Cook-Off is usually Labor Day weekend. We would love to have you guys anytime. :)

  6. Yeah I know, my parents went for a couple of years but I never got to go. I was on my mission both times. Got a lot of pics though.

  7. Arlene, have a great trip back home, and it was fun hanging out! I'm glad you had a great time. (The Milakovices are the best hosts, I'm sure.) Our city is the vacation spot of the year!

  8. Are you saying Eagle Mountain attracts strange people?
