Symphony in the Flint Hills 2011

Bebot got a major workout this weekend. 300 miles worth. And on some crazy, winding dirt roads at that. Max took us on a wild ride through uncharted territory.

No this is not Brian showing off his new found muscles. He’s putting on some sunblock.

SAM_0353

I have no idea why he decided to wear black.

Here’s a photo of this year’s Symphony site.

Pre-concert photo.. People not yet in their lawn chairs.

Another pre-concert photo.. Brian and I, just killing time.

Brian eventually got hot and changed into his white shirt. I think he just wanted to show off his leaner, sexier body. Guys always find reasons to take their shirts off.

Brian made some new friends.

We met these folks on Friday during our volunteer day and then ran into them again on Saturday in the parking lot. We decided to all sit together.

People are starting to show up. Getting closer to showtime.

SAM_0372

Don’t ask. He told me it was to block the sun. Whatever.

BTW, you can rent chairs at the site so you don’t have to lug around your lawn chair. It can be quite a trek from the parking lot to the actual concert site. The nice thing about the rental chairs is that you don’t have to take them back. You just leave them at the end of the show. That to me is well worth the $2 chair rental fee.

Almost show time…

Alright. It’s 11 o’clock and officially past my bed time. I guess this is all for now. I will fill you in on more stuff and share more pictures later. Good night, all!

Brian and I are looking forward to checking out Symphony in the Flint Hills. It’s this huge annual event that we’ve heard about for years, but have never ever participated in. I’m not sure what to expect, but I’m really looking forward to it.

P.S. This photo was taken by Jan using her iPhone.

Brian is a Dirty Old Man

Posted on June 10, 2011 by under Things to Do.    

Brian got super dirty working at Fix Pasture today. We were helping to set up the Symphony in the Flint Hills event this weekend.

Here are some photos I took of him on the drive home…

You can’t tell how very dirty he is in this photo, but we both immediately showered as soon as we got home because we were both in dire need of scrubbing. I looked really tan at the end of the day but, in reality, it was just dirt. LOL.

Bad Weather

This was before it started hailing. Yeah. I’m glad we are inside and dry.

Wordfeud Moment

Posted on June 8, 2011 by under Games, Life, Movies.    

Whoa! I had no idea you could play bad words. LOL.

I think this will help Brian out some. These four letter swear words are the only ones he can really spell. 😉

LOL. Just kidding, baby!

Speaking of, Google has a neat new toy on their web site in honor of Les Paul’s 96th birthday. So Brian pulled up Google.com and then told me to strum. What did I do? I started strumming his computer screen.

Brian looked at me and said, “WTF, babe? My laptop is not touch screen!”

“Oh,” I replied with much disappointment.

It’s sad when you are so used to everything being touchscreen that you just expect everything to be that way. I’ve actually borrowed someone’s non-touchscreen phone before, pushed on the screen several times in vain, and was frustrated when I couldn’t get it to work. Total Scotty from Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home moment.

Faced with a 20th century computer…
Scotty: Computer! Computer?

He’s handed a mouse, and he speaks into it.
Scotty: Hello, computer.
Bones: Just use the keyboard.
Scotty: Keyboard. How quaint.

LOL. Yup. I feel like Scotty sometimes when I’m forced to use primitive hardware.
