The Gratuitous Promise

The Gratuitous Promise: not worth anything, but I'm making it anyway!.........My thoughts as a stay-at-home mom turned law student, who just passed the California bar exam.

NAMI Walk

The 2nd Annual Fresno NAMI Walk was this morning at Woodward Park. What a great day for it! Absolutely perfect weather! I participated last year also, and it is so nice to see SO many people come out for this event. It's a lot of fun and they have a lot of different activities going on there.

Both years now I have run into someone that I haven't seen for years. This time, it was a lady (who was friends with my mom) and her daughter (whose sister and I were best friends for a while in high school). It's always nice to see people from your past like that. But what was funny was that the daughter is married to the SBA president of my law school (for the last year)! I knew who he was, and thought I had talked to him before (know I have emailed him), but it was cool to be able to talk to him for a few minutes too. Nice to know another law student gives their time to this worthy cause.

In other news, I went to the Alan Jackson concert at Table Mountain Casino last night. I had never been to a show there, so wasn't sure how it was set up or how big it was. It was really pretty small. I'm guessing about 1000-1200 seats only. We were in row X, which was the second to the last row (not counting the general seating in the small bleacher section), and even though the floor was flat (not lowered towards the stage), we could see really well.

This was the 4th concert of his we've been to over the years. This seemed to be a slightly different type of crowd. I'm wondering if the Casino's club members got preference in buying tickets, because my hubby was online the second they went and sale, and we barely got a seat, and the people around us were generally older, and not looking like they were too internet savvy (if there can be a look for that!). Kind of odd. Anyway, it was a fun concert and loved seeing and hearing Alan again! Nice to have him come so close by! :)

Guess that's it for now!
