Mayfest 2013 is a hit.

I went to Mayfest last night with my husband and son. What a blast. We got to listen to the Red Dirt Rangers, eat strange food, check out art booths and just basically have a great time.

MayFest really seems to have grown this year. There were more vendors, more entertainers and more people than I remember in years passed. The planners did a great job.

My favorite finds this year include:

We HAD to try the Moink Balls — I was after all with my men. It’s meatballs surrounded by bacon on a stick and smothered with BBQ Sauce. They came five to a stick. I had one and let the guys eat the rest. Not bad.

THIS is my favorite booth. The artist is Teresa Merriman. I purchased the journal third from the right. It’s leather bound, full of watercolor paper and is lovely.
Here is a photo of Teresa (The Artist) and the Journal I picked out. Super sweet peeps. Go find their booth!

Ooh They Come in Pink!

Status on Facebook: So I’m shopping at Bass Pro with my wife and I’m talking to this guy about 7.1:1 vs. 6.4:1 reel ratios, 7 baring vs. 9, magnetic brake vs. Pin braking system…..you know, the usual stuff. Then we hear a voice behind us “Ooh! They come in pink”! My wife is now the proud owner of a Zebco rod/reel combo. Humbling really…..(Jeff O’Hara )

Not only do I have a pink rod and reel, I have pink line, pink bait, and a pink hat. I’m ready to fish. All I need to do now is remember where I put that fishing licence we got last May. Why pink you ask? Easy, 1. It’s my favorite color. 2. I live with three guys (1 husband, 2 sons) Pink is the only color I know they won’t “borrow.”
