Today was a lot of fun, here in North Carolina. There were six of us who learned some new card making techniques this morning around April's kitchen table. We made three interesting, and unique cards. Great fun!
Keith took Emmy to Chunky Cheese for pizza and fun...we were dumbfounded that he would be brave enough to do that, and on a Saturday to boot!
When Em went down for an afternoon nap, and so did Keith; April and I ran over to Trader Joe's for a few items. It's always so much fun in yuppie-land, looking at all the organic foodstuffs. The aisles were jammed, with shoppers carrying their own fabric bags to put their stash in. We had ours too!
Tonight, we went to the Prairie Home Companion road show, which was a live radio broadcast on NPR.
The new concert hall, in downtown Durham, is in the revitalized tobacco district. It has four stories, and was full with an enthusiastic crowd.
We've been listening and enjoying Garrison Keillor since the mid-eighties, so it was wonderful to see a live show, full of the cast we've listened to for years. I can scratch doing that off my bucket list now. The kids gave me the ticket and outing as my Mother's Day gift. Not deserved, but surely appreciated!

Enjoying your trip vicariously. New cards and Garrison Keillor, what a great weekend. I heard him speak at my goddaughter's college commencement eight years ago and we are still talking about it.
Happy Mothers Day - sounds as if all is well in your world.
Sounds like a fun day....when are you going to post the pictures of them....or are you going to sell them....and when Keith came back was he in his right mind? LOL That place is crazy.....I love Garrison Keillor....I love listening to him, but I wasn't that impressed with his books...maybe I just wasn't in the right mood....I have a about 6 tapes of his....I have to have them put on cds, for I use to listen to them in the car, but I only have a cd player....and what a nice gift... judy
How cool, always wanted to be part of the Prairie Home Companion!
