Birthday Picnic

I went on a little picnic to a beach for my friend's birthday.  We didn't actually eat watermelon, but I did bring a picnic basket and we had picnic blankets, so the picnic motif seemed appropriate.  Didn't get a fabulous picture of my nails, so I'm posting 2 OK ones.  



Watermelons and birthday balloons!

Folk Fest Nails

Well, I'm feeling a little sorry for myself today.  One of my favorite events of the year is the Philadelphia Folk Festival, where there's awesome music crafts, hippies and fun.  I've gone most years of my life, usually just for 1 day with my family (and sometimes other friends) but a couple times I have been a volunteer and camped and spent the whole weekend there- although so far I've only done that on my own.  While my husband has come for the day a couple times, this year we were going to go together and volunteer and camp.  I was really looking forward to it, we paid and everything, but I have been having stomach pain on and off for the past couple months, and lately it's been kinda bad.  Thursday we decided not to go.  My parents were planning on going Saturday (today), and finally talked me into going with them.  So last night I stayed up a little later than I would have otherwise doing some fun colorful nails.  Then this morning they got here and my stomach was hurting and I just didn't feel up to it.  They waited an hour or so, missing more music the later they stayed, and I finally convinced them to just go without me.  Janis Ian and Natalie McMasters are playing today, yesterday (who I'm probably most upset to have missed) Old Crow Medicine Show, the folks who are well known for playing Wagon Wheel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gX1EP6mG-E) I'm just feeling real down right now.  Anyway, here are my colorful fun (though not really that impressive) missing the folk fest nails.

Sorry for being so bloggy on this post, just feeling real bummed.
