A little over a week ago, Matt, Elias and I went to the Folks Festival in Lyons, Colorado. When I bought the tickets in early June, I was super excited. An all day outdoor concert with various folk musicians, plus the main act of Gillian Welch and her guitarist David Rawlings (love them!). Why wouldn't it be great?
Well, it was pretty crowded by the time we got there, so we were a bit crammed in on our blanket. Elias was antsy and pretty hard to keep entertained. It rained, but thankfully only for about 10 minutes. Once it neared Elias' bedtime, we tried to get him to sleep on the blanket, but he wouldn't have it. We had to stroll him around and around until he fell asleep. Then the transfer back to blanket didn't work, so we had to stroll him around and around again. We had to leave early so we didn't get to hear all of Gillian and Dave, and we were both exhausted on Monday morning.
Why is it that when you have such high hopes, things never seem to turn out?
