I meant to start writing more posts, but September has been pretty busy with weddings and traveling, not to mention football. Well, ok, I really haven’t spent much time keeping up with football this year. However, I did see the last 2 minutes of the ECU/VA Tech game where ECU sealed a 35-28 victory. Saw it on the TV in the lobby in the Atlantic 19 Hotel in Virginia Beach as I was waiting on the rest of our group to arrive to go to dinner.
Yes, so a bunch of us were in Virginia Beach for the Neptune Festival the last weekend of September. Unfortunately, with the winds and rains, many of the events on the boardwalk were cancelled. Fortunately, the main event, the sand sculpture competition, was still held, which we got to check out. And the vendors were moved inside of the convention center, which was down the road a bit from the boardwalk.
Overall, it was a good weekend even though the schedule had to be modified. But that’s not what I came here to talk about….
The real reason for this post was really to do a check-in and post a song. And what better song to remind us that September isn’t all that bad than a song from 1970s college radio favorites, Big Star, entitled “September Gurls” from their 1974 LP “Radio City.”
