Scenes from the Weekend

If your weekend could be summed up in three words what three words would they be? 
Mine: Concerts ( Alex & Sierra; Dustin Lynch) -Jesus- Southern Nights-Frans?
Whoops, that's five words. 

And why is is that I always meet the ratchet people? I've been told I've never met a stranger and can make a fran anywhere. Every now and then this is a problem. Like Thursday night after the Alex & Sierra concert. I rode the train into downtown Dallas. No way I was gonna fight the traffic or parkin'.This was all fine till it was time to come home. They really should rename The West End station ratchet station. I sat next to a couple of interesting people. I got an earful on all the inappropriate things they have done on not only the train but at night on the train tracks. One of the guys kept tryin' to get me into the conversation until I told him the conversation was to ratchet for me and I wasn't payin' attention. Bwahaha. But, Alex & Sierra were not ratchet and I appreciate those harmonies so it's all good. 

What is your favorite song currently?
Mine- American Prayer by Dustin Lynch

Y'all already know how I feel about Country Music. It'll always be my first love. Those Summers spent in Southern Louisiana & Northern Mississippi with my Paw Paw as he sang all the good ol' boys. I find it funny cause I called him the other day and he didn't know who Blake Shelton was. You know the song by Alabama that says, "If you're gonna play in Texas (you gotta have a fiddle in the band)"? Well, that's my Paw Paw about all music. So for him puttin' it nicely: Folks in the vein of Blake Shelton don't have enough fiddle in the band. It makes for easy holiday and birthday presents. It was always somethin' Dallas Cowboys related or Country Music. But, remember this is the same man that thought he was in the internet and just learned what email was but doesn't have a com-pew-ter. Somehow I think he would have appreciated Dustin Lynch cause he sang covers of all the good ol' boys.
