Catherine and Craig took us to hear Ray Wylie Hubbard in concert. His music was alright, but the stories he told between songs were much more entertaining!
Grandma and Uncle Craig knew Hubbard from when he was a jeep driver in Red River, NM. Grandma, a beautician, claims that Hubbard's was the first guy's hair she'd ever cut. Apparently, he's changed hair styles since then :)
It was a very relaxing atmospere - we just sat around, listened to the music, watched kids run around and play, ate food, and drank beer - very pleasant. I think Duncan needs some outdoor theaters and stages!

It looks like you guys had a great time. You forgot to mention the neighbor's pool - I hope Uncle Craig remembered his swim trunks. Get a look at Grandma's legs - she prayed and prayed that I would not have her skinny legs - that still makes me mad.
Let me tell you - at one time Ray Wylie was a hunk, but definitely a "wild a$$."
Excellent shots...as always and ever... the sculling pics, in particular. Said before, but bears repeating: you have an excellent eye, Jess.
What I wouldn't give to have an apartment in that building overlooking Austin Java! That looks like the perfect place, for a number of reasons...
The picture of you and your grandmother is very sweet :)
Yeah Mom, while we were at the concert, grandma kept mentioning how jealous you would be that we got to see Hubbard. I couldn't figure out why!
Buck, most of those scull shots were dumb luck. My favorite one, where you can see the swirls in the water - my camera locked up right as I was about to take the picture, and I just had to take what I could before they sculled away. If my camera hadn't jammed up I would have missed the swirls. And I thought the same thing about the apartments while I was sitting there eating breakfast.
Thanks, Dawn!
