S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night

OK, it's really Saturday afternoon. There are songs for Saturday night and Saturday morning (hint, hint), but none about Saturday afternoon.



I saw the Bay City Rollers live in England in 1976 at a BBC Radio 1 Roadshow. I think I hitchhiked across half of England to get there, not necessarily to see the Bay City Rollers, although they were extremely popular at the time, but just to go to the show. Apparently these shows ran for 8 weeks during the summer but I don't remember hearing of any others. I don't even remember what city this was in but it was a lot of fun.

I think this is probably the longest weekend blog post yet, since, on the weekend, I usually just post the

Interesting days


Today - https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/train-day/ If you've never taken the California Zephyr from Sacramento to Reno, you should check it out. It's a very scenic ride through the Sierras with an interesting narrative along the way. I used to do the narrations a couple of times a year back in the early 90's. It's also https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/lost-sock-memorial-day/ and https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/moscato-day/. Raise a glass in memory of all the socks that you've lost over the years

Tomorrow - Don't forget Mom today! And speaking of Mom, it's https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/mother-ocean-day/. It's also https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/stay-up-all-night-night/ I'm definitely celebrating this (although not necessarily by choice) and https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/windmill-day/ I think I'll head out to San Francisco to see the two windmills there

Next Saturday - https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/learn-to-swim-day/ Not only is swimming fun and good exercise, it's also a good life skill to have. And it's https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/international-virtual-assistants-day/ and https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/sea-monkey-day/ How many of you had sea monkeys as a child? I did. It's also https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/world-whisky-day/ Thanks Linda Arrowwood for the awesome Jack Daniel's Praline Pecans for my birthday, although I seriously doubt there will be any left by next week
