Friday night an old friend and coworker hosted her annual cookie party. We didn't stay long, it's usually quite populated with landscape architects. I didn't mingle well. We had the lad with us which was probably a mistake. This year they didn't have the video games set up for the kids and he was bored. Shoulda found him a sleepover I think, LOL.
Saturday night my company had their party. It was hosted at one of the partner's house. It's a beautiful log cabin he built himself on five acres. It has a wide porch and deck all the way around the house and a larger deck out back. They hired a folk band for atmosphere and had it catered. The band was great and played a great mix. I asked them to play crazy mary b/c in between each song they tuned their guitars to the opening chords of it, or what reminded me of it (I've heard the opening chords of crazy mary more times than I can count, LOL). The one guitarist perked up and said, Crazy Mary?! and I got excited, then he said, come on down here and sing it with us. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
I'm better at singing along than being a lead singer. LOL
I declined.
The food was good and they provided lots of beer and wine. I skipped the hay ride this year though.
