Yesterday was pretty amazing. We did our grocery shopping at Nash's organic grocery store and Sunny Farms. We left the house at 8:30. Willow was such a good girl, so we all had little ice cream cones at Sunny Farms. We also checked out the plants at the Sunny farms nursery, which is one of the places Chris has applied for.
The weather was beautiful. We worked in the front gravel garden pulling weeds. That was hard work for this fibro body, but I am determined to keep myself going. Willow was a good helper and she also set up her angry bird toys on the stepping stones. She's still obsessed with angry birds. It's the one thing she talks about the most. We must have worn her out because she passed out on the couch with her mouth hanging open.
Her Grams picked her up at about 5pm, and she brought us some tomato and basil plants from her neighbor! Sweet! Chris and I got a hold of some friends and made plans for the night. We were both exhausted, but we didn't want to pass up seeing the fabulous Shelly and the wonderful Denny, and the rest of the crew. We went to the Barhop to hear some "bluegrassy" classic rock. They were amazing, and the dancers were shakin and movin! The banjo player and lead singer always captures me. He has such an amazing voice, and I love the way he plucks that banjo. Then we went to the Junction, and heard Blu Meadows. They were awesome! I had a couple drinks and boogied down, although I knew I would feel some regret in the morning. I was right, but it was fun. I'm so tired and sore, but my head is filled with funky music, flashes of dancing people, and my heart is overflowing with positive energy.
We woke up earlier than we should have since we were out all night, but Chris is doing his shift at Studio Bob in Port Angeles, and he is the featured artist at the gallery for tonight's art walk! His art fits in really well here. It's a better fit than the Red Raven Gallery in Port Townsend, but the Red Raven is still seriously fabulous.
So I'm sitting here at Studio Bob looking out the huge windows at the cars driving by, but mostly watching the people ...the way they walk, who they're walking with, what they're wearing, the way they have their hair, the dogs that they are walking. It's fascinating. I could probably write about it for hours. It would be fun to write little summaries on each single person or group.
In the background I see big boats...one looks like a ferry one looks like a barge or something. There's a bus stop and people standing around. There's a ferry terminal, and a farmer's market across the street. I would love to check out the farmer's market, but I'm broke and it's so warm and cozy here at this spot. There's a lot of little shops here in the downtown. Oh jeez, I'm trying to convince myself to go shopping. It could be fun, and I don't have a little one in tow.
Enough blogging for now. On with the people watching, and maybe some snacking...not on the people, sillies.
