Rick Springfield

I wasnt going to post this then decided that I will. Mac and I went to see Rick Springfield in concert. I had been wanting to see him my whole life but never got to do that. Finally, this time we did. I had all but one album of his. But, some thugs broke into the house and stole them all. I was lucky to save a few 45s. I dont think there is a song of his that I dislike. I like some more than others but dont dislike any of them. Some of the lesser known songs were great. Speak to the Sky is a favorite of mine. Too bad he doesnt sing that or stuff from Comic Book Heros album...great stuff! I used to play his albums over and over and over. I would listen to them repeatedly till I almost wore them out. Now that my albums are gone I am sad. They are not available on cd. I dont know why it is such a big deal, I couldnt play them. Anyway, I love his music.

I started watching General Hospital at about age 14...really paying attention watching. My mom watched the show long before I ever did. Dr Noah Drake...yum. I even scheduled college classes around the show. But that is a different story.

Mac and I went to see the concert and we had the BLAST of a lifetime. The only topper would have been to go back and see him or get autographs. Mac wanted a guitar pick so badly. She decided he is hot and even was wanting to watch GH to see him. I have created a MONSTER! She had a blast and is now listening to his music. His concert is so full of energy! He goes out into the audience. Mac touched him and we helped him keep balance on chairs as he strolled through the crowd. We did get flower petals and pics.

My only regret is not getting to see him sooner. It was the BEST!!! We hope we get to see him again. It is so worth repeating. We are still on cloud nine.

CITO Event

This weekend Team Okie7 (Chris, Michelle, the girls, Mac and I) went to our first CITO event in Healdton, Oklahoma. We had fun. We cached on the way down there, while there and also a bit on the way home. CITO (Cache In Trash Out) was something mgoose and other area cachers put on annually now to help clean up the lake area and so show appreciation for allowing cachers in the area.

The event started with lunch...pretty good food. Then cachers signed up for areas to clean up. I was expecting serious trash but the area wasnt too bad at all and was even better after we were done. There were drawings and prizes. Every one of us walked away with prizes this time. And...in addition to that, I won the BIG prize....a brand new gps. I am so excited and happy. We hope to do this again next year. We cant wait for Fall Fest!
