So this weekend I'm taking a little journey to the Happiest Place on Earth (aka Stillwater America!) for a national holiday (at least at OSU)...Calf Fry. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, allow me to explain.
Calf Fry is an institution at the Tumbleweed Dance Hall in Stillwater. It's a HUGE outdoor concert with tons of red dirt music. When I was in school, it was only two nights, but it's now expanded to four nights of music. Check out the event and the musicians who will be in attendance. It's so much fun--it is like an ag college reunion, but not just the OSU ag college--people come in from all over the place. This year, I know of people coming from New Mexico, Texas, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska! (and fyi--are are my age--so it's not just me!)I've taken a day off of work on Friday and I'm counting down the minutes until I'm in Oklahoma! When my brother found out I was headed to Calf Fry, he responded, "You know that you're not in college anymore right? One day you're going to have to grow up and let that go." Those of you to know Little Brother will find this ironic.
Maybe one day I will grow up and not flock back to my college town for this college event--but that day is sure not today! I am still ready to go live it up with my friends and pretend, at least for the weekend, I'm still a crazy college senior!
So stay tuned for next week's blogs that will no doubt discuss the crazy fun the occurs at the concert on Saturday night (And the adorable babies that Aunt Tiffany will see on the trip. See, I am growing up in some ways! These two will be having their first little one on the Calf Fry anniversary!)
.....I'm no Toys -R- Us kid, but I do love my Calf Fry!
