Prince…When Doves Cry

My very FIRST concert EVER was the Purple Rain tour.

My MOM took me…we were at the Capital Center in a Sky Box.

She had no idea how risque the show was. When he bought out the bed and started doing his thing, my Mom was trying to cover my eyes. HILARIOUS!!

I kept pushing her hand down and peeking through her fingers. We had fun that night…so much fun that my Mom got tickets AGAIN for the next night.

Purple Rain…Purple Rain.

So sad…sigh

Friends for 75 years!!!!!

Last night we celebrated my Dad’s childhood friend Jesse Thomas’ 85th Birthday.

Jesse is the older brother of my Dad’s best friend, my Uncle Puff.  They have known each other since my Dad was four and Jesse was 10.

I pray that I am fortunate to keep the bonds of friendship that I have over my lifetime.

So…..what does my Dad give his friend for his 85th birthday?    10 Lotto tickets!!

Jesse was very pleased.
