So we drove all the way to San Jose, CA to see Roger Waters perform
The Wall. It was the fastest trip possible, except for the driving parts. One day driving there, one day in San Jose, drive back the next day. The concert was surreal , except for the drunk Indian lady who kept shrieking during most of the concert, and picking fights with her boyfriend or whoever was with her. She even tried to pick a fight with us when we asked her to please quiet down.
In the afternoon before the concert we went to The Winchester Mystery House. If you've never heard of it, it is a huge 160-room house built by Sarah Winchester, the widow of one of the Winchester rifle heirs. After the untimely death of her husband and child, she visited a spiritualist who told her the souls of people who died from being shot by her family's guns were haunting her and the only way to appease them was to continually build a house -- nonstop construction, 24/7, for thirty-some-odd years until she died. She held seances to get building plans every night.
Butler can be a source of aggravation, since he has water on his brain. He hasn't learned not to chew on people and he can get very fussy and vocal. But he is also a good source of fun and amusement. Now that he's getting so big and fat (he's probably at 25 lbs.) Don put a t-shirt on him. Other fun moments: Butler is not afraid of the lawn mower, but he is afraid of remote-control cars. Butler actually will follow Don around when he mows the lawn; in fact, he follows Don just about anywhere if he is allowed to.

The BYU Athletic department often brings new recruits by to Special Collections for private tours, and they said thank you for my tour-giving with free seats in the loges and wristbands to the hospitality tent. It was a gorgeous day for a football game, and from higher up you could see all the fall foliage really well. I haven't gone to a BYU game since I was a freshman -- I think they've changed things in the stadium around a bit.
