Wow... Been A While

Hey party people...
Sorry for the lack of posts... I had to go back to WORK... a drag for sure... doing something a bit new this year though and enjoying it... I'm the bad-ass detention man... you do wrong... you come see Mr. Misgen!

Anyway, looking forward to the first annual Booyah & Bocce Blowout.
Discussing some party preparations with the Sis and decided that we will be going with all old-skool beer choices for the day... such as.....
Or....

can't forget....


And one of the all-time and a personal favorites....


We'll be cooking the Booyah over the fire outdoors... just as Larry and Noel did back in the day... almost 100% officially going to be held Saturday, October 17. If you are reading this... you're invited.
I'll keep you posted.
Hope all is well with everyone.

Oh, and watch out for those road ragers... don't see too much of that up here.

Happy Labor Day

Wanted to give much deserved acknowledgment to the working folks...
HAPPY LABOR DAY!!!
Brought to you by the same folks who brought you the
"WEEKEND"!
ORGANIZED LABOR!

Rock on
&
Work on!

Summer Of Wayne 2009 Toe-Tagged

The Summer of Wayne is officially done for 2009.... and I stumbled and stammered and fell over the finish line this year... not sure why... just happened that way.

But we have new adventures on the horizon... the most exciting of which has to be the first annual Booyah party we'll be hosting in October... and in my pre-party planning brainstorms, I am pretty darn sure we will have at least a couple cases of Schmidt beer on hand for the day of festivities. Schmidt you ask? Quite simply - in tribute to Larry and Noel... the guys who were the original family Booyah cookers back in the day.

In fact, I remember Diane giving Auntie Mary perms and Larry bringing over a bunch of Schmidt big-mouth bottles to drink while the ladies did their thing - it was probably about 10:00 in the morning to boot!

Anyway, we may even look into tying a Bocce Ball tournament into the deal... Booyah and Bocce.... look for details soon.

Hope all is well with everyone!
~peace~

The Stumbling End To The Summer of Wayne 2009

I'm not going to pretend I recall when these pictures were taken so you get one big post... not nearly enough for a picture everyday... see above post.... anyway.... enjoy....

Fin on his loveseat

Not sure if you can tell by the picture...
but I mowed Mama D's lawn
and
happened upon on hornet's nest...
they stung the shit out of me...
five stings - one to the hand (above) the toe, stomach and two on the thigh..
I ran into the garage and had to strip my shorts off....
hows that for a visual?

Experimenting with the black and white...
the big tree in the backyard

Was at work (GASP!) the other day
and found this Badgers garbage can and decided to turn it into a
'washtub' bass....
I've got an old hockey stick and a clothes line wire there...
doesn't sound too shaby...
I'll post a vid soon....

DellMarie and Poppy gazing out the window.

My braid work... pretty sloppy.... decent B&W though.

Disgusted that it is, indeed, September 7th already.... ugh.

The Schnarnival

Hey party people...
Had a great time at the 2009 Schnarnival (a deal similar to Tomten) at Al and Phoebe's house.
I was the opening act - and as Al said, "ya know what they say, everybody only remembers the opening and closing acts... they forget everyone else!" Is that true? Don't know.

Anyway, it all went great, had a great time, lots of Summit keg brew, good food and good times.... was threatening to dip into the 30's by midnight or so... everyone stuck pretty close to the fire....

Here are a few pics of the performers....

Jimmy Myhre

Colleen Myhre

Bill Schnabel

There was also a performance by "Chrome Dog"
but I failed to get a picture... why??? No idea.
I did find it quite funny when someone yells out...
"YEEEAAAHHH CORN DOG!"


And why these two chicks are leaning so much to the right, know one will ever know.
Drunk I suppose.

Dropping the Ball

I have been neglecting my Summer of Wayne Photo Essay.... sorry folks... but I do have some gems I will put in place of the missed days... it really is tough to take a semi-decent photo everyday for 90 days.... cuz my life isn't all that exciting... as you can tell....
anyway... one week left... oh man....
Enjoy.
