Miranda Lambert, Casting Crowns, and heavy crowds

This is a real sand sculpture!
 Riverbend has been enjoyable this year. Two more days remain, but I think I'm all music-festivaled out...at least, for the time being. I've put some responsibilities aside this week, so now I'm playing catch-up. The month of June has been tougher than I hoped, but as soon as this week is over, things should reascend . Yes, grad school courses will still be taking up the majority of my free time, but I think I've established a firmer grasp. No more procrastinating for this girl. Those lazy days of undergrad are long gone.

Casting Crowns had a fabulous performance this Tuesday night. This particular date of Riverbend is dubbed "Friends and Family Night" so I was expecting somewhat of a lighter crowd. Though the riverfront was absent of hard-partying beer-toters, all of downtown Chattanooga seemed PACKED. There's obviously no limit to these sorts of events, but for sanity's sake, there should be a cutoff.

Good friends + funnel cake + frozen lemonade =summertime
I was most looking forward to Miranda Lambert's Wednesday night performance, especially after previewing a setlist that my boyfriend found online. Unfortunately, a THUNDERSTORM cut her concert short, but to me, four songs are better than none. I mean, lightning was streaking its way across the sky (and the stage she was on is literally UPON THE RIVER), so I guess we're lucky we got to hear her at all. My little umbrella certainly came in handy that night.

 Well, it's back to work..... for now.
