Years ago this outside amphitheatre used to put on a musical called "Christy". This was one of mom's favorite places to go during the summer. They performed 5 nights a week during the summertime. We would bring hot chocolate and blankets for those cooler nights and sit and watch "Christy".( It was NOTHING like the movie Christy that is out on movies now.) This musical was beyond awesome....Now this amphitheatre is runned down and actually when we walked around what used to be the parking lot, is now overrunned by cows :) This amphitheatre hasn't been used in over 17 years.... An older lady who owns this area who we met , allowed us to walk around. This was one of the highlights of our trip...just walking and reminiscing those good times. We even went inside the barn that was there on the lot and we found a couple old filing cabinets. Now understand this stuff has been there for over 17 years! so you can imagine how excited we were to go thru this barn. We were hoping to find an old brochure of the program but instead we found some letters and stuff. It was still fun though.
A letter that we found written by one of the people that performed in "Christy"
Yes we were trespassers but we had permission :)
Going out to eat as a family...with 11 kids 8 yrs old and under ...crazy I know but actually that night the kids did very well and we were able to enjoy the meal :)
