Well we found a dress, only after hitting every single dress shop in Aspen. In the end we made it home at 3:45 to find Ty still sick with a 102 degree fever! We almost didn’t go to the party but after he took some Tylenol his fever came down.
The Gala was not very good. The school raised a lot of money, probably $750K-$1 Million but the venue was loud, the food was crappy and some friends who were going to be at our table couldn’t come due to some health problems. On top of that the preview where we all walk around and look at the silent auction items, was so crowded as they didn’t have enough room, that you could barely walk. We did have a new couple at our table who was the guy that won the Indy 500 in 1996 and 2000. They were nice. I know all this really doesn’t matter as it’s for the school and the kids but they could have done a better job. Oh well, that’s now in the past.
Happy Veterans Day to all the vets out there and everyone that understands what freedom is all about and it’s costs. Sadly I think a bunch of people these days don’t realize what sacrifices some make. It’s ironic that so many have paid the ultimate sacrifice so they can do all the stupid things they do, enough said.
Today it’s clear and not too cold outside. We’re going to continue to try to get Ty better, clean up and get ready to head to the islands. First up is the gym, hope all’s well and everyone is doing ok. God Bless.
