02-22-23 Winter Ale, night one
Ok, I do need to revamp my calendar.. today I managed to very much overbook myself but it all turned out in the end. At one point I was training a client over the phone, handing out papers to another in my office and taking texts from a third all at the same time! I raced off to Key City to meet the performers for tonight and get all the things ready then off to the open house at Encore for an amazing tour before picking up my prescription and a bite to eat and back to Key City to emcee for the night. It was a lot of fun and the audience was super engaged. Red Girl opened the evening with The Parsons joining them for the last song and then John Reischman and the Jaybirds performed for the rest of the evening. It amazes me the 5 musicians from California, Chilliwack, New Westminster, Nanaimo and somewhere else in the states, can come together so beautifully. I never think I am going to enjoy some types of music as much as I do. There is nothing like live music and I am thrilled to be part of the group making it happen here.
Of course, one of the best parts of the day was when Rae-Anne said I could go throw a ball on the Encore lanes, something I haven’t done in a long time, and I got a Strike!
