Girls Rock!

Sunday Travalon and I went to the High Noon Saloon to see the participants of Girls Rock Camp perform. The de facto step-granddaughter of Denii was playing the electric violin, and she and all the other girls were really good. Girls do rock! I said too bad they didn’t have Girls Rock Camp when I was a kid… and then the lady in charge announced that there would be a Ladies Rock Camp in October, so I might have to think about attending that. It’s only a long weekend, not a whole week like Girls Rock Camp. I told Rockstar Tailor about Girls Rock Camp last night as we were biking all over Pheasant Branch with Hardingfele, but she seemed surprisingly indifferent. I thought it would have been right up her alley, since she sings and plays the guitar.

Travalon and I discovered a little park on the East Side as we were heading to the Mallards game Sunday evening. We went out on the pier and watched a guy fail at waterskiing. Then we continued on to the Duck Blind, where you can get unlimited food and beer. The Mallards were playing the North Shore Chinooks, and they were really struggling. We left in the seventh inning when they were down 11-2, and later we found out the final score was 17-3! Last night the Mallards played the Chinooks at their home, and they lost to them again, 10-0! That was the first in a three-game playoff series, so if they lose tonight, our Mallards are done for the season. Can they finally beat the Chinooks?  We’ll see…
