Party

Posted on Friday, October 22nd, 2010 at 9:52 am

Been working for several weeks to get the place ready for a party.  Aching joints and muscles every day for weeks, sometimes well beyond the range of ibuprofen to ease.  But the place is ready except for a quick mowing of grass seed stalks and picking some poison ivy.  (I’m not allergic, knock on wood).

.

I completely rewired the barn, with appreciated assistance.  RGB lighting for the stage, clean electricity for the audio equipments (amps and PA), lots of rope lights and utility lights, a lit bar, among other stuff.  Landscaping was a monster and a half, but it’s done (except for a few zones where it’s still a WIP, but not close to the main flow of the party.)

.

Among this was the loss of a friend and his funeral yesterday.  His being a songwriter will assure that we’ll be playing his music this weekend.  RIP, Mike.

Looking forward to playing music this weekend.  At least I won’t be working my buns off, just my voice and fingers.
