... let's get in your truck and go for a ride and listen to Mickey" That is what my wife Suzette said to me at about 6:30 this evening. Suzettes pretty laid back. Seldom will she come up with an idea like this. So we did. It had just started raining. Didn't last more than about 45 min. but it was enough.
I have to confess that, at the appointed time this after noon,I wasn't at home playing any music. Instead I was at the 6th birthday party of a little girl that is just like family to us. I watched her and about six or seven other little girls as they tore into the presents and get hamburger, hot dogs, and cake all over themselves. I watched as the parents set up a slip and slide for the girls to play on. Each one had a smile a mile wide as they triumphantly slide down to the other end. I watch my daughter, Monica, as she put colored hair spray into their hair and how it seemed to light up their whole world. I watched the little girls parents,grand parents, and great grand parents as their whole world was set in this one little girl. I watched the happiness that life brings at times. At four o'clock,in my mind, I left the party for a breif moment. I then returned my attention to the party as we sang, Happy Birthday, to Alison.
