Pig Out In The Park 2010

Rick Derringer (right) and Pat Travers put on a great show at Pig Out In The Park this past Saturday. My ears are still ringing...

The weather forecast sounded a little dodgy but we lucked out this year. The high winds that were predicted didn't turn out to be that bad so the dust really wasn't a factor. The temperature was also very pleasant.

There was also more to choose from as far as food offerings this year. And the prices were very reasonable from about $6 - $8 for a typical offering.

Give me good inexpensive food and great music and I'm a happy guy.

What a great event for Spokane. Hey Bill Burke, thanks for the memories!

White Christmas in Spokane

According to weather experts you can count on having a white Christmas in Spokane about 70% of the time. I can attest to this, in fact we usually get a first dusting by Thanksgiving. Spokane's own Bing Crosby made this notion popular in the 1940 movie "Holiday Inn" in which he sang "White Christmas". Here is a AP story entitled Why Do We Dream of a White Christmas? that explores this idea that is so popular this time of year.
