Monday Blues: Updated

3 days off and it's going, going, ... Gone almost! It was fun filled with good friends, singing, dancing, jamming, swimming, playing, drinking, eating, good food, barbeque, oysters, crabs, late nights, jokes, boy meets girl, revival of good ol' friendships, stories of the past, family bonding, disruptions, freebies, love, tears, laughter. We all camped, some in tents, some in RVs, some in campers. We all ate together on one long table. We picked oysters at Deep Bay. We swam together on one pool where we camped. We sang and danced, and listened to the beautiful strum of guitars by John & Alejandro. Stayed late night to listen to some more and sang with the magical 12 strings & harmonica played at the same time by our very talented, childhood family friend of the Johnsons, Mr. John Walther with the banjo as his finale, and Alejandro with his beautiful "harana" version. Oh, and there's nothing like a get together with so many photos taken! I can't count how many cameras - and cell phones were clicking here and there. It was a wholesome 3 days camping with beautiful people that I wished never ended. To you our dear friends and families who took the effort to bring families and friends over to the Island- before and during this long planned event- thank you. I can't tell you how much appreciated you are for making this Fest a successful one this year. My honey's hardwork on organizing a family event has paid off because of you. Your hardwork on making it here despite this past week's circumstances has paid off. My honey and I would love to see you again soon. Thank you for leaving us with such good memories to cherish and lots of photos to remember you by. I will send you a link as soon as I get our album organized so stay tuned. Thank you, gracias, salamat, merci.
