Willie Nelson!

Willie in Concert!
Just about the luckiest lady around this weekend!  On Sat. at the Lake Stevens Aqua Fest Parade, we ran into my x-employer & our good friends;  Dave, Debbie, Lee & Patti!  Dave had two second row tickets to see Willie Nelson at Snoqualmie!   After purchasing the tickets way in advance - they found that the date conflicted with other plans that day!  One ticket was open!  I jumped at the chance!

I'd enjoyed Willie's music, but really can't say that I was a die-hard "fan"... Until Now!  Seeing the entertainer in person, so "up-close & personal" was an incredible experience.  The man radiates an incredible warmth & charisma.   Then...  there's his music!  I have NOT seen such amazing guitar playing - EVER!  His voice resonates with the deep, scratchy rumble that his long-time fans know & love. 
Such contact with his audience~
The Snoqualmie Casio was the perfect venue to see such an amazing performer & the weather could not have been finer!  I feel very guilty for not offering my husband the seat...  but next time we will be sure that he goes!   Seattle Weekly article -  Dave & I get our photo in the "local" paper :-)
