SUMMER CELEBRATION

DateThursday, July 3, 2008 at 10:44AM

Hi gang! I am slow on the postings this week because, well, I am moving slowly this week.  Miss Vicki and I, along with several of my regular readers, volunteer our time at the Muskegon Summer Celebration. We get up in the mornings, work our regular jobs, go straight to the festival, work until midnight, come home, and smear each other with Ben Gay.  Its funny how how smearing each other with cream and the sounds of moaning and groaning from the bedroom takes on a whole different meaning at this time of the year...

Mother nature pissed me off yesterday.  Although we had high winds, torrential rains and hail (all things that are not conducive to an outdoor festival), that is not what got me mad.  What got me going was the fact that it was July 2nd and I was being swarmed by both Junebugs and Mayflies.  Someone needs to get Mom a calendar.

The area Miss Vicki and I run has a small stage where regional bands perform every day.  There was a seven hour long battle of the bands the other day.  I read in the brochure that the genre was "Youth".  That surprised me.  I thought the genre was "Four Kids That Have Never Touched a Musical Instrument Before On Stage With The Volume Cranked As Loud As It Could Be And A Lead Singer With A Microphone Attached To His Hand And 120 Volt Live Wires Attached To His Testicles."

We have two members of our committee that we call our site staff.  They handle all the mechanical / electrical / "We're out of toilet paper" problems that we encounter.  To protect the innocent, I will call them Ray and Alf.  The other morning, our canopies were sagging from the water that had collected on them so they went over to push them up to drain the water.  At least that is what I was told when I asked why Alf was walking around half naked with his wet shirt laying out in the sun...

That's it for today.  Talk to you later!

Just wondering
Who gets smeared with Ben and who gets licentious?
