the "memories" assignment

While on the road doing parler gigs with my parents, We often meet new people of all different types. One gig we had was at the rock creek fair. I had worn my homemade hemp headband that day, and I got a lot of good compliments from some local hippies. I also tried Gyros (roasted lamb deliciousness) for the first time, and made a few bucks off of the photo booth, so I bought some ride tickets on my break. I looked at other booths. I really wanted an airbrush tatoo of a fish. My dad didn't let me get it though, he drew the fish on my arm with a sharpie instead. The night was beautiful there, there were lights everywhere, and it smelled like carnival food and cigarrets. My parents and I were there for two days, and we did crossword puzzles to pass time. Overall we made a few hundred dollars, and it was a really great experience. I even made a bed across the pad in the backseat of our truck as we drove home, and I fell asleep instantly, we were there very late!

  1. Allison I have to say you have a very interesting family. Your dad sounds pretty funny. I remember seeing you at the carnival. Sounds like you had a good time. :)
