What  an exceptional evening we had!  Pink Martini is so much fun.  They are so tight and accomplished.  China Forbes was singing who doesn’t always apparently.  She and Thomas Lauderdale (sp?) the leader have been at this for twenty three years.  And there were nine other members of the band on stage last night.

Some of their songs are in english and some in all sorts of other languages.  So last night they invited people up on stage that could sing along with the song.  There was a song in French and a bunch of French folks went up to sing.  And Turkish there were a lot.  And three women who knew Mandarin Chinese.  And they did a piece in Arabic and one guy got up there and had his own mike and sang with China Forbes.  He was knocked out.

It was at San Michele Winery so we were all drinking wine and it started to rain toward the end but nobody minded.  I’m exhausted here right now back at home, we got back just a few minutes before midnight.  And just a thank you to Sister Joyce who paid for that whole thing as a gift, what a sweetheart.

So, am jumping up in a moment to pick corn for the day.  This is the last day of the stand being open.  I almost closed it Friday but decided I could probably stretch it over the weekend.  People will want to BBQ and eat corn over the weekend.  So we made it 27 days from the beginning of the early variety to the end of Bodacious, the later variety.  A good run and it brought a lot of joy to a lot of taste buds.

OK, stop back by tomorrow.  Take care till then, Felipe.x
