Friday night I sang the anthem at the South Bend Cubs again…
No where near sell out crowd... but the stadium holds almost 11,000 people.
Afterwards I head over to my buddie’s gig across town…
…. but the bartender doesn’t get my food order in, the bar closes, and we were “forced” to go to Bar Louis for late night dinner. Then came a half dozen beers or so… stayed out too late and had to be up to leave for a mid day gig at a lake an hour away.
Was fine until the third hour of the show. Sweaty, dehydrated, and my fretting hand started cramping up.
Pulled my guitar in close and tilted it upright to keep my wrist as straight as possible. Cowboy chords and bar chords, finished the gig.
We went for a boat ride and spotted the boat ramp by a lake bar that we played the grand opening of 13 years ago!

We are arranged on the ramp to make us the same height…. Typically our bass player comes up to my shoulder.
Sunday was late father’s day visit with my wife, kids, and their significant others. That should have been enough for one weekend… right? Right?
Get a work call… the primary switch for one of our offices is down… affects about 1500 people in 4 locations. I drive in and we troubleshoot to no avail… finally I unbox and rack two brand new Cisco switches. Another engineer in Michigan is remoted into my laptop with a hot spot while I rerout port by port all 96 patch cables from the old switch stack to the new one. It was close to 2 am when ai finally got to sleep.
