Trip to findlay

Last night Jane and I had no plans so we decided to drive over to Findlay, Ohio and see our favorite daughter, Carrie Jade. It's only about an hour and a half, and I hadn't been there since helping her move in in July.

We had a nice trip, and good visit. Took a book shelf and a little table to put by her door. Then we headed to Tony's, where I almost had a Ben Roethlisberger Burger - a one pound hamburger for $7 (You know, he's #7 for the Pittsburgh Steelers). Big Ben is from Findlay, and his uncle was actually Carrie's sunday school teacher when we lived there during her middle school years. Anyway, I had a tenderloin and salad instead. For some reason I've not felt well since though. I don't know if it was something I got off the salad bar or what. I hardly slept last night; got all sweaty, then cold; and I still feel real sluggish today. Maybe it's the weather. Sounds like a good day to do nothing.

I did plan to go to the coliseum and get tickets for John Mellencamp sometime today. Not that we really wanted to seem him (or wanted to spend that much money to see him), but we had been trying to find a concert to attend for my birthday, and there just isn't a lot going on right now with anybody we'd like to see. JM is playing Fort Wayne the night before my birthday, so.... what the heck. Actually, John's guitarist used to be in my friends band (Jason & the Scorchers). His name is Andy York. We sat just behind him for supper the last time we were in Nashville. He's a dern good guitarist, and really swell guy, but he's actually even smaller than I am!

Well..... authority always wins.

Peace out; peace in.
