Sunday September 29th~

Sunsets are daily reminders
 that the world is full of beauty...

Yesterdays sunset, another glorious one and I 
was lucky we were right there again to capture it.


Yesterday Arvid and I checked out a music venue,
 close to us that we have never been to before.  It didn't 
matter that I had mentioned this place to him over a year 
ago.  He said he thought the music would not be "our kind"  
Then he got an invite to the place, googled it and just
 like that it became the right music for us 🎸


It was really good music, the best part was watching 
the interactions among the people.  This place caters 
more to locals so it was packed.  Everyone seemed
 to know each other, and those who didn't sure 
became "friends" before the evening was over.


It is a great venue for music.  There was a little of everything. 
 Reggae, Blues, Rock and Roll, Funk you name it the band 
played it.  Lively and seeing everyone having a great time
 and dancing the night away was just the best part of it.


Though I was right next to Arvid, I was approached 
by two men.  I had no clue they were trying to "pick" me up.  
Arvid told me they were, and we had a good laugh.  Yes, it was
 an interesting evening.  Looking forward to going back.


It's another very nice day here.  Even better because mom
 and dad have power again and we were able to get hold
 of them and talk to them.  If you didn't know, the Western part
 North Carolina was pretty much wiped out due
 to Helene.  Life is definitely unpredictably.


I know that in life there will be sickness, devastation, 
disappointments, heartache - it's a given. What's not a
 given is the way you choose to get through it all...
