Willie Nelson At Red Rocks 2008

Willie is the man!!

Willie @ Red Rocks

We went and saw Willie Nelson play at Red Rocks and he blew us away. Winchester, and his fiance Melissa teamed up with us and we got to the show a couple hours early so we could tailgate. Winchester brought a small grill and we grilled up some delicious Brats.

Jerry Jeff Walker opened for Willie and we all really enjoyed his set. It was an absolutely beautiful evening that was complimented by a pretty outrageous lightning storm out over the city of Denver. Willie as usual totally rocked despite the fact that he did not close with Whiskey River which puzzled Sarah who has seen him more times than I can count and insists that he closes with that jam every time she has seen him.

LOOK OUT TROUT

Sarah and I went and fished boulder creek on Sunday, and Sarah pulled in her first 3 trout. All dinkers but you gotta start somewhere. I am predicting greatness. Trout in Colorado might as well just give up.

We all went out fishing on the 5th with Captain Bill Crandell on his boat C-worthy. We have been coming to leland our whole lives and never gone out charter fishing before but we decided to give it a try to celebrate Sarah and Taylor's birthdays. I sincerely hope it will become an annual tradition because we had an absolutely awesome time and came away with a lot of good fish to eat.

The weather was perfect,the beer was cold, and the highlights were a big king salmon and a nice brown trout which is a really rare catch out on the big lake
