Hey folksies,
Has it been forever since I have posted on here or what? I can’t believe it has been over a month.
I have been so many places and done so many things. First let me speak of my trip to Alabama for my grandpa’s (my moms dad) surgery. Everything went really well and we got the news back that they had gotten all of the cancer. I had a blast while I was there. My cousins and I went to the lake and swam. I got to stay over at some of my cousins’ house that I usually don’t get to stay at and we had so much fun. I finally got to see Pirates of the Caribbean! YES!! It was awesome! On the last night I was there me and two of my guy cousins played a huge trick on another one of my guy cousins and then we all walked a couple of city blocks away to a conveiniance store and bought energy drinks. Mind you that this was at three o’clock in the morning…lol! To sum it all up I guess I would just say: WE HAD A BLAST!!!!
On the way home, we took a slightly different route than usual. We went through Natchez, Miss. There we met my other grandparents on my dad’s side and the celebrated their 50′th anniversary. We had a really fun time! We took a horse and carriage ride and we toured the old Antebellum homes. In two of the homes I got to play the really old grand pianos that were there. In the Dunleith I believe the one I played was made in 1876 and in the Rosalie the one I played was made in 1846. They were really nice pianos and they sounded great. Both were the Chickering brand. I played a piano in another house but it was not a grand like the others and it was one that they used today for dances and things so it wasn’t old like the other ones. The lady in the Dunleith told me to come back any time and play the one there. I might take her up on the offer sometime! The homes were truly magnificent! We also went to some kind of Indian reservation thing but I was too tired to take the hike down to the little dwelling so I just sat in the car. I wish I would have went now but….OH WELL! It’s too late…lol!
After we got home I worked a week and then we had to start our campmeeting at Fairland Holiness Church. It was a tremendous camp. On what we call the “small nights” it was larger this year but on what we call the “large nights” it was smaller than usual. It was still a very nice camp though. Our choir done pretty good. Nothing outstanding but it was okay. After campmeeting I am back to the grind working. Except that I’m off today…lol. I am thinking about getting a different job than Sam’s because it is not really working out like I need it to. We shall see how it goes this week!
Whew….I know this is a long article but I just had so much to say!
Take care,
Jason
