Likely the first time ever!

Mom and I went down to the Puyallup fair this weekend. It was a birthday trip to go see the comedy show of Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy. Both acts were pretty funny and we enjoyed ourselves.

The Puyallup fair has exhibits for darn near everything, If you have the chance to go,it's worth a sense of wonder to stroll the Hobby Hall.

Ok, I teased the topic of first time ever, so here is the real news. I usually buy a bag of fair scones when I go to the Puyallup. Nothing newsie about that, but look closely at the picture below.





Can you see it? Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I got from the official Fisher Fair scone people a bag with TWO Scones! ! ! !  Likely the first time, ever, on the earth, that this happened. My bakers dozen magically expanded to a bag of 14!  Cue the trumpets, this deserves a fanfare. Where is that Guiness guy when I need him?

This next Sunday, I go back to L.A. for a two week trip to help Honeywell Aerospace inspect the various gadgets that they build or overhaul. Mom will come down for a couple days on one of our mini-vacations. I have tickets to see a comedy play written by Ken Levine, of MASH, Cheers, Frasier, and Mariner play by play fame. Should be fun.

The proofs are in for the eclipse shirts, so I thought I'd give you a preview of what they are going to look like. Pretty nice I think!






Ok, that's it for now! (Imagine, 2 scones in one bag. . . . .)

  2. I was really considering it. I didn't discover the bonus until I got home and went to fetch a morning after the fair treat, and there it was! The odds, oh my the odds !
