Friday night, we wanted to go to Gerrit's Washington State Admissions party but we also had to watch Jess' band play at an open mike at the church where they practice. They played Paranoid by Black Sabbath and Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana. They did great although they need to get a better stage presence. The videos are on Facebook under their band page for their new name "Rush Fury".
Saturday, I finished some wine racks while Meg went to a funeral up near Bellingham. I took the kids to pizza in Seattle and then to El Corazon to see some bands. I felt a little old going to a rock club filled with college age bands and fans and the boys felt a little young to be at a rock club. But we all had fun and Jess got some ideas on how a band should act on stage.
Sunday, we finished pressing the last of our 2010 wine. We have 44 gallons now in carboys. We also have to get to bottling most of our 2009 wine. Meg is still working on a name and labels but we will get it done soon.
We then went to the Lobster Shop to have brunch to celebrate Grandma Gennys and Grandma Lois' birthdays. Great food and it was fun to have a crowd of 13 at a restaurant.
Next weekend, we are going on a boy scout annual planning campout where we plan the outings for all of next year. Jess and I are going but Joe wants to go to a friends birthday party instead. After that is Thanksgiving in Oly and then the rest of the weekend at the beach house.
