Big Ole Hairy Friday

Yes, it is once again that time of the week that we all look forward to when we can take time to cease the labors for the week and take a little bit of needed time out to enjoy the fruits of those labors. It is again the dawn of another weekend and a Big Ole Hairy Friday.

If you are looking for a little bit of cheap, and by cheap I mean free music have I got an event for you. Tonight at the Hazel Ruby McQuain Amphitheater down on the waterfront, legendary band Los Lobos will be taking the stage at 8:00. They hit their peak of popularity back in the 80's when they were the band that did all of Richie Valens music for the biopic Labamba. Lou Diamond Phillips was the actor that portrayed him, but it was Los Lobo's Music rocking your movie screen. 

The Monongalia County Fair has been going on all week, it has been going on all week and closes out tomorrow night. I haven't been to the fair in years, In My Opinion, I think it is just too commercialized here. Not a knock on it, but some of the other ones around and into Pennsylvania are much larger and enjoyable, more livestock, more crafts and baked goods and more unique vendors to the community. Mannington puts on a real good fair that is not too far away. 

Have yourselves a great day and the start of a great weekend.
