Every year for the past several years the oil company that I retired from has a Christmas show for the employees.
Being retired, I don't qualify to get tickets for the Christmas show anymore. But AD, who also retired from the same company at the same time I did, went back to work for them part time. I'm not sure if that qualifies him to get tickets or not and he hasn't worked in a few weeks, but one of the guys he's worked with for years wasn't going to be able to use his tickets and offered them to AD.
It was a good show and we had a good time. Can you tell who the entertainment was? Probably not. We were sitting wa-a-a-a-y back in the auditorium. Well, not as far back as some folks, but far back enough that I wasn't able to get a good close shot of the guys.
One of the attributes of the Community Center is that the accoustics are excellent and the group sounded great.
Oh yeah - I haven't told you yet who the performers were. If you like country music you probably know the name Diamond Rio. Yep! Diamond Rio was the entertainment and they put on a fine show.
AD and I enjoyed a good evening!
Oh My Gosh Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteYou lucky thing you. Diamond Rio oh what fun. Sounds like this company knows how to really thank their employees for the holiday. I am so durn tickled you were able to get tickets. How wonderful that a friend shared.

ReplyDeleteOh...I have used a chocolate cake mix for those cookies and it is DELISH!!! Worth the effort and coated in the powdered sugar it is SOOO pretty!
Nothing like a good concert. I'm glad you got tickets.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good time!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea who Diamond Rio is - obviously I don't listen to country music!
Wow! I would like to see and hear them sometime. What fun.
ReplyDeleteLove Diamond Rio. What a treat for you!
ReplyDeleteI love Diamond Rio! So glad you got to go to the show..You really seem to be enjoying your retirement..I have about 15 years to go but I am not going to wish them away. Most days I enjoy my job. I suppose that is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that you got to go. I bet it was a great show, I love Diamond rio music.

Glad you had a great time!! I love the little marshmallow snowmen in the post below. Very cute!!
ReplyDeleteI just love live entertainment....Diamond Rio is good! When you go to Branson, try to get tickets to see SIX. (If you haven't seen them already.) They are an awesome group of six brothers who sing, do comedy and do all the instrumentals with their voices only. Great harmony and they are right on the strip. Have fun!!!
