MY MICHELLE

So after taking a day off of work and drinking and fishing with friends, I had to pick up Mrs. Bop and Lil Bop at the airport at the butt crack of dawn. They landed at 7 AM. Hey, cheap flights are at weird times. Anyway, we all had an early start, Lil Bop had a back to school tea party with her best friend from school around lunch time, and we ended the night with a Beatles concert at Red Rocks. That's right, the Beatles--live--in concert. SWEEEET!

Yes, that is the Beatles tribute band down there. They recreated the Beatles show at Red Rocks from 1964. It was awesome. We went despite all our other travels because Lil Bop's teacher played the Beatles in class for the kids occasionally. When she came home singing "Eight Day A Week", it brought up an old memory of mine. My mom, who was a teenager during the Beatles invasion, said it was weird hearing her 12 year old son singing the Beatles while doing Saturday chores. Mrs. Bop and I thought it would be a good first concert for Lil Bop. She had a good time, but Mrs. Bop and I were wiped out.

So, 8 Day tally: 4 lakes, 2 fish, 1 hangover, 1 concert.

If you think you had to get up at the butt crack of dawn, just think about us. I was up at 3:30 am. No fun!!
