Last weekend before my last days of work!

The last weekend before I was done with Hendrix included a lot of Hendrix activities! We had Hendrix night at the travs on June 25th and then Katie and Kent's Wedding on the 26th! I got to see a whole lot of Hendrix folks that I hadn't seen in a long time.

At the Arkansas Travelers game I got to see Jan, David and Sarah Alford. I introduced Rory to a few Hendrix professors waiting in line for a beer in the beer garden. Then I got to see a few of my prospective students that came over all the way from Memphis!

Here is Lana and Rory hanging out in the beer garden after we had our fill of hot dogs, hamburgers and popcorn at the Hendrix event. Josh Wilson and Josh Johnson. Josh Wilson has once again taken to closing his eyes for every picture that is taken of him!
The newly engaged: Chris Stevens and Rachel Floyd! They met up with us after all the Hendrix festivities went down.
On Saturday night we went to Katie and Kent's wedding. They had their reception at the Arkansas Arts Center. It was gorgeous and the food was delicious. They had a potato and grits bar. I was in heaven! I definitely went back for seconds on the grits.

Here is John and Kelley! We started the Hendrix table front and center at the wedding, right near the grits bar! Patrick Ford made a trip to Arkansas just for this wedding! It was fantastic to see him.

All the Galloway Girls together again!

I even managed to get a picture of Rory and I. I took the same picture with my phone and it was a lot better. Sorry I couldn't manage to get that one up here!

Last but not least, Lana and Rachel!

It was a fantastic weekend! I can't wait for another Hendrix wedding... Just around the corner on Dec. 18th!

Wakarusa 2010

My first major music festival ever!! It was a blast. Rory and I arrived around 9 pm on Wednesday night and stayed through Sunday morning. Rory's Uncle Robert and his friends reserved and RV spot. It was in the shade, we had water and electricity hook up. We also got the luxury of showers and real restrooms. A commodity that I was very appreciative of after about 20 minutes in the heat. There were a lot of great shows there and some very interesting people!


For example, I didn't realize that hula hoops were a popular item for anyone over the age of 12.





Here is a picture of one of Rory's favorite bands - The Black Keys. This was a great show. Everyone that was staying at the RV site with us set up an umbrella and a few chairs. I felt bad about blocking a good view, but shade was hard to come by.


This Umbrella was the first one we had set up. The next few times we set up a tarp for cover so we could fit more people underneath.

One of the stages was located under a giant tent! It was the best place to be. Complete shade with a breeze and cool grass. Here we are taking a break from the heat in between shows!

Right by this tent was a ton of food, another stage and a carnival set up. We didn't go on any rides, but it looked like fun!
