I would just like to preface this by saying that I know it’s wrong to complain about having too much bounty. I’m sure summer squash growers agree with me on this.<\/p>\n

But I am disappointed that I already have concert tix for Falcon Ridge<\/a> for the same time James Taylor is playing in concert down here.<\/p>\n

JT was the first concert I went to as an adult. And I’ve gone hundreds of miles out of my way (Virginia Beach is not really on the way from Salt Lake to Middletown) just to catch his show.<\/p>\n

But Falcon Ridge has become an annual event and one I’d be sad to miss. We used to camp with the Dar-listers (who are a nice, welcoming bunch), since that’s how I learned about the event, but for the past several years, we’ve been sharing a campsite (okay, an imaginarily demarcated space in a hayfield) with my former co-worker Shelley, her husband, Mike, and their two kids. And while I might be convinced to skip the festival in order to catch another concert, I’d be hard pressed to deliberately miss out on the cameraderie.<\/p>\n

So no JT concert this year…<\/p>\n

And I’ll be okay with that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
