So we move onto birding with the Birdchick (http://birdchick.com/wp ... she rocks. Check out the blog). The nature reserve was amongst the most beautiful places I have ever visited. And I saw an Eastern bluebird for the first time in my sixteen years. Can you believe it - living in Rhode Island and never having seen a bluebird? There just don't seem to be many of them around these days. But Sharon - the Birdchick - assures me they're making a comeback.
Lorraine's gigs were so completely awesome. I don't think I've ever had so much fun in my life as I did the Friday and Saturday I was in MN. This is me having too much fun with my marvelous camera at about one-thirty in the morning, post-gig.
Almost dead!
And does anybody else like the shirt I got at the nature reserve?
Yes, and this of course is Emily having WAY too much fun with her camera.
That's a pillow on my head, if you were wondering. Some people have asked.
Revelle reading "The Zombie Survival Guide" (which I've never read), as a zombie.
A good deal of fun with Lorraine and Cabal, her boss's (http://journal.neilgaiman.com/) dog.
He was a terribly sweet dog.
Chantrelle did not disappoint with the socks:
No, she never ceased to amaze me.
Donielle, who was impossible not to like.
This same antique shop bore the cheesiest but most fascinating Star Trek drinking glasses (thanks to Lorraine for pointing them out: I said, "Check out these Star Wars glasses. Ha." Though I don't actually watch Star Wars - that's Jack's forte. And Lorraine said, "If you go over there you'll find Star Trek glasses." I leapt away to see.)
More pictures are coming. But for now, I need a break. Eat supper, maybe, after a long day of working at a local festival. Waitressing is a fun way to keep busy!
