DAVE 09

INCREDIBLE! AMAZING! need I say more! Words cannot explain the excitement of a Dave concert, let alone 2 days of a concert with Dave. So my best friend, Whit has been going to this concert for the last 5 years and I didn't understand why until I went with her last year. Last year was my first experience with the Gorge. We only went to one day of his concert and stayed at the gorge campsite which was crazy. I didn't really know much of daves music but I love roadtrips, music, and being with my friends, so I gave it a shot. I loved it and so I made sure that I could do it again this year. Well we went for two days this year and it totally opened my eyes of the greatest of the Dave Matthews Band. Jared and Whitni flew up there, where slicer picked them up from the airport. Kates drove all the way from St.George and picked me and Adam up, and Shanell and Doug followed us up there in Dougs parent's car. Kates has a green convertible which is awesome, but we had so much stuff we couldn't put the top down until we got to WA. We stayed at Moses Lake,WA which is a 30 minute drive from the venue. It was a great campground. So the process of getting a good grass spot at the concert is intense. We get there 2 hours before the gates open and when they do, we have runners who only have blankets and they run down a half of a mile to insure a great spot. Well it was started pouring rain when we got to the lines on Saturday afternoon. It didn't let up either. We were all soaked! Kates and I dressed up as hippis. Kates and Whit ran down to get us a great seat. By the time Bryce and Holli got to the venue with the ponchos the rain stopped. Great timing Slicer. Although we were all soaked and freezing, we had a great time! I almost peed my pants because Dave played my two favorite songs at the end of the show. You & Me and Ants marching.

Sunday it didn't rain to much but the wind was crazy. It blew over the tent and ripped it to shreds. Bryce, Holli, Kates and me went to the concert early on Sunday to get us a good seat. We paid for the VIP pass, which is the way to go. We got to sit in this little lounge area while we waited for the gates to open and we were already that much closer to the seats we wanted. We got the most incredible seats ever. Dave is amazing and his concerts are so much fun. Everyone should come experience the gorge!

Aliens...? Was it a coverup?

Aliens, aka EBE's, have been known to be seen in Rosewell, New Mexico. The big question that still exist today is do aliens really exists or was it a cover up by the government. After a visit to the national UFO museum, and watching a few movies on the conspiracy of Rosewell in August of 2009, I believe that it was a cover up. It was very interesting to read documents, such as the Majic, that gives details of these so called EBE's (Extra Biological Entities).

I took a road trip down to see some of my best friends, Whit and Jared. It was so much fun. Slicer, Ashley, and myself, treked it down 12 hours to see them, which I think is love right there. They live in the cutest little house and in a town where there are many crazy people. i do believe that we did see an alien. This guy who was completely out of it, was just crossing streets here and there. He is lucky he didn't get ran over. We drove down and didn't get there til like 3 in the morning on thursday. We had fun going to the lake on Thursday and drinking our big gulps. Friday, we went to the UFO museum and Saturday we went to Carlsbad Caverns. The Caverns were incredible. We walked down 750 ft down into the ground and saw many incredible formations. Luckily, there was an elevator at the bottom that took us up to the top. I don't think I would have made it if I had to walk up. At around 7:00, when the sun was about to set, we got to sit by the cave opening and watch as millions of bats came flying out. It was amazing. They just kept coming and coming. Sunday, we went to church and got to go to Whit's and Jared's Sunday school class. They did an amazing job. On our drive back we decided to camp at Moab. It was hard core camping. Ashley and I weren't so keen on the idea of sleeping on the ground without anything beneath us. Good ole Jared gave us his tarp so we wouldn't be rolling around in the dirt. Good news is that Ashley didn't get attacked by a coon.

I was sad that this trip had to end, because I love the Whit! She is my jammin partner. They were both so good to us and feed us incredible food. I am so glad that my friends married eachother because I know that I will get to have both of them in my life forever. GO ROS!!
