John Prine - Nashville - December 31st, 2015

Celebrating 2017 in the best of ways, Charlene at the John Prine Nashville concert.  Lucky lady.

John Prine, Jason Isbell, and Kasey Musgraves - what a show it must have been.  I was there in big, majestic spirits! (photo - Daniel Meigs)

Happy New Year 2017

 

I have completed all my Christmas and New Years' celebrations.  Now let us move on to spring - have a little bit of a perk to your step - but do not fall off your perch.

 

 

Christmas Tree?

Yours truly decorated as a christmas tree!  Great fun at our annual ladies auxiliary christmas party.

The gift basket I won at the party.  

It is always such a great time ~ lots of good ~ fun, food, friends, and cheers.

Merry Christmas

My Christmas Gift

My Christmas Gift for our annual ladies auxiliary Christmas party.  It consists of my knitting stuffola.  Our proceeds go to the hospital foundation and search and rescue.

Such fun I had putting it all together.  There are a pair of slippers, dishcloths, coasters, a hot pad, christmas bell tree decorations (all knitted by yours truly) and much, much more.

We all have a great time - good food, good friends and a most enjoyable evening.

A Bit Of Knitting. . .

Slippers for my Grandsons.  Yeppers, 22 and 20 years old and I make them slippers with mega-size pompoms.  Only a Gramma can do this.

They appear rather hole-ly in the photo but eh, that only gives each slipper individual character.

A new knitting project and very easy to do.  Christmas tree bell decorations - with a little bell inside.  I shall make several of them and give to my family and friends.  With a note attached - Merry Christmas from your Ding-A-Ling friend.

Save the best for last.  

I love to see what folks are wearing on their feet.  Comfy shoes, hikers, boots, flip flops, what-have-you.

My Prine friend, Reeda Buresh was in attendance (backstage) at Prine - Davenport.  She had thought of me and my fancy of footwear.  She zoomed on in and snapped the footwear of John Prine.

When I first viewed the photo, oh my I laughed and laughed.  Finally, I placed my arms on the desk and rested my head...laughing and laughing.  Calm came to me, I regained, and went outside for some fresh air.  The fresh air was there and so was more laughter.

Nothing finer than Prine footwear and laughter.

Thank you Reeda Buresh for the great photos, especially the footwear.

Parkers' for Prine

Des Moines, Iowa

A Prine acquaintance of mine, Patti Parker and her Parker family attended the Prine - Des Moines, Iowa show.  How special is this - they had Prine t-shirts made.  The the front of the t-shirt read - Parkers' For Prine.  Great way to spend a special evening with family and Prine.

Thanks for the photo, Patti Parker.

John Prine - Davenport - Iowa ~ 2016

Yeppers, all trying to be very graceful ladies.  NOT - they are having late afternoon lunch awaiting John Prine - Davenport.  Kathy, Lyla, Charlene, and Reeda.

Now, let the Prine fun begin. . .

The imagination can run wild . . .

These were colored photos,

not black and white.

Oh the joys of living rural.
