The Last Huzzah....

The festival's season is over and it was time to say goodbye to everyone. I had a great time working at the fest this year and I think it was wise to only work the three days I did (well, plus the babysitting of little B it was four days). It didn't feel like a chore and it was very fun.

I finally got this picture from Mark from earlier in the season (Sept 9th) and I wanted to show you little B an I. We were hanging out at the tent on and off on the weekend I babysat her.

Isn't she just super precious???? And the hug? Totally her idea which always makes me melt. Not to mention that I cried a little when she wanted to make a wax mold of us holding hands. It was so touching...

We had a wonderful time that day. I will remember it always.

(I'm such a sap...)


While working at fest, people I know tend to stop by the tent and I LOVE that! This past weekend I ran into few friends of mine. Here is a picture of Brad and Jodi! I was shocked to see them walking in front of me as I was coming back from a food run for Mark.

Remember when I had to play my accordion for Maryls and Ronald? (scroll down to May 22nd) Well, Brad is one of their sons. Cool huh?

We chatted for a while and I found out that they were going to the Feast of Fantasy (or should I say the Drinks of Fantasy?) . Later on they came back to visit me and the feast had done it's job and they were feeling fantastic.

I'm glad they had a good time and it was wonderful to see them again - as always.

Another friend of mine stopped by as well and many of you know him as FreAkWerKs from this blog's comments. He is a free-lance photographer and is trying to grow his business. He took this picture of co-worker Jessica and I and the one below of Mark and I working at LaJeanne's tent.

You have to admit that they are much better quality photo's than my crappy ones. If anyone is interested in getting some photo's taken - he's your guy!

Can you believe that I'm not 1,094 pounds anymore? Isn't that super awesome?

Here are one of the rare photo's of Mark and I together. At least the picture was taken during a truce in one of our many spats throughout the day.

It's too bad LaJeanne, Heather & Curt were so busy on Saturday or I could have gotten a photo with them as well.

After hours, Heather and I hung out to watch the award ceremonies for the workers. (the ones that get paid - her being one of them) When the festivities were over we ran into this dude holding vials of alcohol concoctions he had made up.

He was so kind to let us try a sample of some of them. The man had some serious talents in the alcohol arena but sadly I had to drive home yet and could only sip my samples....

Obviously Mark had plenty of time to sample the dudes potions and proof is evident here with his choice of retro style 80's shredded skin tight jeans to wear for the evening.

I realize that some chicks totally dig this style of attire (mainly the harem he had surrounding him this night) but I am not one of them. Somehow, this outfit just doesn't match with the 'period' we are in...

Oh Mark... It is 2006 right? he he he

We soon left Mark to his possee of ladies and we headed out for some dinner at Perkins while trying to warm up from the cold night air. It was a great way to catch up with Heather and we had a great time.

I'm not sure if I will work next year but we will see what the future brings. Anything could happen....
