Prairie Home Companion

 


So tonight I saw Garrison Keillor in a tiny little town a short distance away. We were gifted with the tickets to see the show.  
Kevin has made me listen to a Prairie Home Companion countless times. Anytime we would be traveling in the evening on the weekend the radio would be tuned to public radio.  I couldn't understand the appeal and would often roll my eyes and stare out the window...bored.  Until eventually I started to listen and laugh now and again.  Perhaps it was it grew on me or I grew up?
So when asked if I would like to see Mr. Keillor I wasn't opposed to the opportunity  but I knew that this had been a dream of Kevin's forever.  Linda and Larry joined us tonight...we dined on hot dish, green bean casserole and jello. When Mr Keillor took the stage you were mesmerized...to actually see a person and not just hear a voice was pretty cool.  He led the crowd In songs...so amazing to be a part of. Told stories in his trademark way. Just being in that space and hearing his voice was a moment not soon to forget.   Spending the evening with good friends was just a bonus.
