Flashback Friday (part 28) - What Would Jimmy Buffet Do?

August 14, 2009

In August 2006, two men and two women set out on a road trip from Virginia Beach to Northern Virginia to see Jimmy Buffett in concert.
Tailgating before Jimmy Buffett in 2006My brother Mike was an experienced Jimmy Buffett concert-goer but it was the first time for Tim, Caroline and myself. Tailgating before Jimmy Buffett in 2006
It was memorable for several reasons.

  1. Caroline and I were pregnant.
  2. It was 103F in the shade without heat index.
  3. We brought our own port-a-potty.
  4. Tim and Mike thought the best way to stay hydrated was to keep drinking.
  5. Tim said at least 756 times, "there are a lot of drunk people here."
  6. I almost beat my husband 756 times for saying "there are a lot of drunk people here."Tailgating before Jimmy Buffett in 2006
Caroline and I did make up for it last year when we went back again for the concert and I got to do the ice luge among other things. Tailgating before Jimmy Buffett in 2006
My trip two years later was much more fun.

Here is explanation of Flashback Friday and other FF posts.

I've been to more Jimmy Buffet concerts than I can remember over the course of our 25 year marriage...at least 10! He was quite a shock to my system being raised on Willie Nelson and other old time country music, but I now love him!

Your idea for flashback fridays is great. I'm sure you'll have takers! Kim

Your own pot-a-potty. Wow. I really had a hard time getting past that...

Now that is a true port-potty! Do you still need the outdoor scent air freshener for this potty?
