A Busy July

Halfway though July, we realised that we'd forgotten about the Seafood Festival. We'd bought tickets months ago, but not put the dates in the calendar. Which lead to a mixup where I had planned to go away with the guys that weekend! It all ended up okay in the end, as We went on Friday and Sunday afternoon. Leaving Saturday and Sunday morning free to hang out with the guys. Everyone wins.

Then tonight I'm going to see the band Steel Panther, who are an 80s hair metal retro act. But their lyrics are incredibly rude and funny. A friend put me onto them about 15 years ago, and so I thought it's probably a good idea to see them now.

America's 250th

It's been 250 years since the United States declared independence from England. I kinda thought there would be more going on to mark the occasion. But maybe there is, and we don't hear about it over here. I know that Great American State Fair isn't proving as popular as anticipated. At least you won't have to wait in long lines, I guess.
