Spirit West Coast 2008

If you like music with a message and 3 days of concerts, then Spirit West Coast is the place for you. We spent last week at Laguna Seca just off the Monterey coast rocking out for 3 days. There were concerts for every age group, including Veggieland for the little kids. Most of our time was spent at the heavy rock stage with groups like Kutlass, Seventh Day Slumber, Hawk Nelson, Skillet and Thousand Foot Krutch. I was even tempted to venture into the mosh pit, but then common sense took hold and my crazy thought quickly passed. We will definitely make plans to go again next year. Mark your calendar, tickets go on sale in March 2009!

Before coming home we spent some time in Monterey, visiting the aquarium and eating at Bubba Gump's. Brittany, our neice, had never been to the aquarium and it gave me the chance to experiment with my camera settings. I was able to get a few pictures without flash on a fast enough speed that are actually recognizable.

So, needless to say, some of us were very upset to find out that there was nothing the cop was going to do other than give a "stern" warning. Obviously the agressor has also watched COPS, because when the officer began to question her regarding the incident, she denied everything and then claimed to be a diabetic having a hypoglycemic episode. You would expect that since this happened at work the employer would be responsible to take some kind of action as well. Anyways, if you have a co-worker that b...

Cooler Nights = Quilting

If you would like to curl up under this quilt with your favorite book and a cup of hot chocolate, contact Immanuel High School. This quilt will be up for auction on November 1st at their dinner auction fundraiser. We will see if this quilt can beat the little league quilt that sold for $2100.
