Just in case you have nothing more pressing to do than to follow the
"birthing" of a new non-profit, then today is your lucky day.
"It Wont Happen To Me" (IWHTM) had it's Missouri coming out party last night in the booming metropolis of Smithville, Mo.
Popular 5,000 give or take a few. We had everything you would
want in a small town party. And let me state for the record:
it was hot. And I am not talking about the activities.
Although, those were great.
Naturally, we had the Star Spangled Banner(the mid-west version of an opening prayer)
and Old Glory.
We had our sleeping dogs
There was ice cream on the square in an old fashioned candy store--Nellie's (check it out on the web--named
after the death of another friend who died from cancer--
started by her family--same cancer Mr. Fun had
almost two years ago).
Of course, where there is ice cream, there
are children (and one Dave Tallant)
I told Lori the trade/display booth ancient chinese secret (I am chinese you know)
Dum-Dums.
Dum-Dums.
Where there are Dum-Dums, there are kids.
Where there are kids, there are parents.
Parents with teen drivers. :)
Here is our booth...it was WINNNNNNDy but everythingremained in tact. Love the banner stand.
