#73 of 365 - Missed A Day, Hates Getting Old

I missed blogging yesterday due to being sore and tired from the parade waiting and walking and from standing at the GBS show to be able to see something, anything of the show on Saturday. I had one of the Twin Towers in front of me who insisted on talking to the person next to her EVERY five minutes so I could never find a place to peek thru, so I stood up for most of the show.

However, that said, it was a fabulous show! The music was great, old favourites, show tunes and some new ones from Allan and Sean. Tis Sean and Bob in this photo.

and Allan and Bob in this one.


Even tho most of my friends went Friday night, there was still a number of my friends there Saturday along with Erin there were Helen, Lisa, Linda, Pat, Dave and Marty and Tom. Definitely, a must see band, in my opinion, you can't not enjoy them and yourself.

#72 of 365 - Home from the Parade

Home from the parade and out of the hot woolens. Absolutely gorgeous day for marching thru downtown Denver. Here's our boy, Ryan in his Blair kilt that I made last week. Good looking that he is, in it. Here's our Judy as well in her Clan Shirt.

Here's me, clothes changed and ready to head to Boulder for supper and Great Big Sea...

#71 of 365 - and So It Begins

The beginning of a weekend adventure. First, the evening at the Judd Castle. Then tomorrow, the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Denver, then onto Boulder and Great Big Sea. We shall be swimming in a sea of green for the next few days.

That's our Boo, eating the supper, last one to leave the table he was.

#59 of 356 - Hmm, Sunday and Great Big Sea for Me

The dear daughter is taking me to see Great Big Sea for my birthday in March, whoo-hoo!

This photo was taken during the Uprooted Tour in 2002. My wildest dream came true as three of my favourite Celtic Rock and Trad groups, Great Big Sea, Seven Nations and the Young Dubliners were on tour together. We three girls saw both the Vail and Denver shows that tour.


I'll be tired tho, as I will have walked in the Denver, CO Saint Patrick's Day Parade that morning. Oh well, GBS Rocks! This will be the last opportunity for Erin and I to see the band together, as Erin leaves for the UK this summer. We first saw them together at Red Rocks Amphitheater when they opened up for The Chieftains and Sinead O'Connor. That was also a fabulous show. Whatever else you think of Sinead, her voice was ethereal within the confines of Red Rocks. However, what we came away with was CDs and Tees from GBS and deserted island choice of music for me.

So Katte, put the coffee on, Erin and I will likely be spending Friday night the 12th of March at your house.
