Provocative title, sure, but on Saturday night Barret and I got to see him live in concert, along with thousands of 50 something cougars reliving their teenage fantasies. Apparently Rod Stewart is a massive Celtics fan (football/soccer) and so during the second half of the show spent time singing and kicking footballs out to the crowd. They were huge kicks too! I didn't know the old bloke could put 'em out there like he did!
June is a month of concerts! With Rod Stewart down, two more big names to come within the following weeks. Jack Johnson will round off the end of the month, but on the 17th, Barret and I are headed to see the one and only Jon Bon Jovi! Again, I'm sure the crowd will be slightly similar to the Rod Stewart event, but I am sure it will be one heck of a show!! I am really looking forward to both concerts and will let you know all about them!
It's another week off here. Since we are still recovering from our last travel fiasco, we've decided to stay in England for the time. We have a few day trips planned and kicked off the holiday week with a softball bbq last night at the coach's place, a roof top terrace over looking London. Today, being a holiday for everyone else, the weather is crap, so we're sticking around London and going to putter around a bit. Tomorrow I am heading up to Oxford with Diana (I'm sure we can handle a day trip without getting ourselves turned around too much!) Wednesday Barret and I and maybe a few others are headed to a place called Botany Bay, a seaside place to explore and (hopefully) enjoy the weather. Thursday is an administrative day for both of us, then Friday we are back to Slough for another camping/softball weekend. The last one was a ton of fun, despite the weather, so we are hoping for a bit of sunshine and it should be perfect!
I can't believe the school year is nearly done... 7 weeks to go after this week off. Then what... yeah, who knows. Could be bigger, better things that include plenty of sunshine! OR plenty of darkness and snow... still all in the air!
Just a quick update - hope all is well!
Love,
Amy
Well Thessalon is sunny in the summer and snowy in the winter...is that a hint...lol!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your exploring. When/if you get home this summer Gabe will take you exploring on the farm:) He knows an alarming amount about the operation of a 4-wheeler and tractor, he could teach you some stuff and con you into taking him for a ride.
I'm sure Barret will LOVE another cougar fest! Maybe as much as he did Grease! If Barret comes to visit he can do some manly things here. haha.
Alrighty all is well here. Dani is crawling, Gabe is hilarious and Jason and I are great.

Hello Amy: I was finaly able to get caught up on all your blogs. My, you are having an interesting life. Bon Jovi should be a good concert. Would you believe Elton John is coming to the Soo in July? He is not on my list of people to see but apparently he puts on a good show. Been super busy with the therapy dog program and poor Dallas is getting exhausted but he loves to see the kids at school. Do the schools in London have a therapy dog reading program? Looking forward to going to camp for the month of July and catching up on some scrapbooking. I will try to keep caught up with your blogs so I know when you will be coming home so I can see you for a least a little bit. It will be great for you to see your niece and nephew and your sisters and of course mom and dad..take care Amy.
