I was a kid again!



If you were like me you got to see some fireworks over the weekend. Amusement parks and fireworks are two things that always seem to bring me back to childhood. It had been years literally since I sat on the grass lakeside and watched the local fireworks. I felt alive again, refreshed, rejuvenated. Maybe that's why it's such a good way to celebrate our nation's birthday---and it's right in the dead of summer, sort of like a "hump day" for the season. Ah it was grand.

Unfortunately there was such a lull between sessions, you weren't sure when they were done. So, like many of us on this side of the lake, we began to wander home only to see the massive display that lit up the sky when we were back in the sub. Shame on us, it wasn't like we had anything better to do :) Next year, we'll stay for that reason.

Things are picking up for the Michigan Musicians Collective first festival coming up in August. For more details click on their web site and follow the discussions. Profile sheets for the artists are due soon.

In July, Performances @ The Well is taking a new twist and holding a 3 Stooges film festival with games and activities for the entire family. The charity this month will be designated by the winner of the monthly 50/50 drawing. More details coming soon for this special Lamocu party but mark your calender now, July 16th, 8pm at the Well.
