Concert prices starting to stink

Last Monday, tickets went on sale for a November concert in S.L.C. featuring the return of Billy Joel & Elton John, face-to-face. I was SOOOOO excited, as I have never seen Billy and he is high on my concert 'bucket list' Imagine my disappointment (but not really surprise) when I discovered tickets are 150.00 EACH !!!! YIKES!

Same story with the Eagles concert next month at the new REAL soccer stadium.

So, I decided to just keep listening to my CDs and spend my VERY limitd $ on BYU football season tickets instead - FAR cheaper and more than just one evening's entertainment. So when any of the fam is in town, I can take ONE of you at a time to the games - LOL.

Full speed ahead toward Summer

For me, the day AFTER General Conference always feels a little bit like the day after Thanksgiving or Christmas - all the build-up, the anticipation, the excitement has come and gone and it's back to the daily routine (maybe I need a better routine).

It is a truly SPECTACULAR (but chilly) spring day in Provo - sunny, blue, cloudless skies. I feel bad for all the Conference visitors who were treated to 3 days of rain and snow showers and generally damp, dreary weather.

By the way, speaking of Conference talks (was I?) Vader says to tell everyone HE is ALREADY exercising 'provident living' and has been for some time now (save the occasional treat of some of his Daddy's tuna fish). He adds 'life is GOOD' sleeping 22 hours a day and spending the other 2 bird-watching out the balcony window or chewing on Allie.

This was Vader and Princess Leia. One of them looks content and the other just barely tolerant - LOL. At Vader & Allie's insistence, I gave her to Lane.
