Bryan Bowers concert at Traditions

Last night, we went to a Bryan Bowers concert at Traditions Cafe. I've had a couple of his CDs since I first saw him on The Nashville Network back in the 80s. Up until that point, my only experience with autoharps had been elementary school teachers using them as an easy instrument to play. Bryan on the other hand is a true artist!

Olympia Farmer's Market opening day!

The Olympia Farmers Market opened for the season today, and I was unable to resist!

Of course, it's too early in the season to have a huge selection of produce, but a lot of the spring starts are out, and there is always Stewart's Meats to load up on my sausage.

did start some of my own broccoli this year, but the mice got into the starts and dug up the seeds, so I picked up two 6-packs of really nice looking plants from one of the organic growers. As always, I had to go with at least one pack of Packman Broccoli, as that is the one that made me discover that I actually like home grown broccoli. And for the second 6-pack I went with one that has red tinged heads.

Finally! a 24 Hour Fitness in the area

When Laurie was at school yesterday, she found out that 24 Hour Fitness was opening a Sport Club at our exit off of I-5!

Mind you, I'm not exactly in love with the company, they have a lot of policies that drive me nuts, but I like gyms that are open 24/7. The one we belong to now is in downtown Lacey in an office building. It does the minimum job that we require of it, but it has no pool, no spa, the aerobics room is about 15 feet square and they bought all their weight machines from one vendor.
