Happy happy joy joy. I went to a most excellent party last night at Tupelo, with live music! Charlie's Steel Errection played, and I played tambourine (duh). It was pretty fun. It was a party to celebrate the erection of a new Oz, for Emerald City. Our last Oz burned down last June, and we (finally) got a steel building and had it erected by... yes, Charlie's Steel Erection. Or maybe it's Joe's? Can't remember. Anyway, it's an insulated shell on a pad. A lot of people worked very hard to make it happen. The band did not put up the building... a local biz did that.
Tupelo parties typically are a lot of fun. Trout put up the decorations and wow, that was really amazing! We danced under a spiderweb of white rope held up by a salvaged light pole. The light poles used to be on the downtown mall in C-ville and were salvaged years ago. It's good to see one of them put to use -- we don't have much call for light poles here at TO, and they've been lying out in the woods for a while.
Spring is springing up all over. The grass suddenly turned green, the cows are giving a lot of milk, with that delicate scent of onion grass, and we're gearing up for Rowan's b-day. THAT's going to be next weekend, with a big waterfight in the backyard. There's been a little bit of testing already, and I can tell we'll have to give a safety lecture about the squirt that comes out of these things...
Okey dokey artichokey,
