Daddy/Daughter date

 

So Katey invited me to join her at the Michigan Panthers game last nite at Ford Field.  The last time I was there, was with Willis Baker for a Lions game a few years ago.  She was "Hero of the game" for her service in the US Navy.  My one assignment was to do a photo op of her.  We rehearsed the setting facing the front of the playing field.  Sometime during the 2nd quarter, they called her out and I can't find her.  I hear the announcements made by the team announcer former WWE wrestler "Big E" and in about 20 seconds, it's over, no photo.  I am still riddled with guilt over this.  The filming was in the far corner of the playing field removed from my vision.  In spite of my gaff, we had a great time, actually a much better time than the Panthers, who lost miserably.  

I am her always her spare escort when someone bails.  She took me to see Elton John for maybe the best concert I have ever seen.   We sat in the 11th row of arena and I could see Elton sweat we were so close.  This is still a great memory we share.

It's a Shannon Sunday and we are watching....guess what.... Beauty and the Beast for the umpteenth time.  Supposed to be a rainy day. Later we are viewing one of her birthday presents, Mama Mia, the Meryl Streep movie from a few years ago.  She will love it because of the singing.  

Got out and enjoyed the beautiful day yesterday with a trip to Eastern Market.  We happened on the best kindergarten teacher in the world, Lois Mann who remembered us with big hugs.  She taught two of my kids and two of my grand kids.  Lois is about a year younger than me and still going strong giving a safe and nurturing place for little people starting school.

Went to the Madison Heights nature center followed by lunch at Renshaw's and took photos of a birthday celebration.  

Certainly an interesting day

all for now

stay safe
