Down by the River 

Lewis, Clark and puppy

It does look muddy

Del Mar Loop

Clang, clang, clang went the trolley,

Ding, ding, ding went the bell,

Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings as we started for Huntington Dell.

Chug, chug, chug went the motor

Bump, bump, bump went the brake,

Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings as we glided for Huntington Lake.

(Trolley Song written by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane)

HOW IT GOES - This time I was familiar with the game plan. No opening act. The doors open at 6:00 pm. They go on at 7:15.  There is that whole VIP slot club section to deal with -the high rolling slot zombies  - getting a free spin in the theater. - However,  there are plenty of space up front on the sides. It's best to start off standing on the sides then work your way forward.   from the get go. Photo taking is okay, no flash of course. It a one hour show so don't be late.

If you will meet in St. Louis, 

Meet me at the fair.

Jane commented that she loved the new theater - It felt like they we are playing four nights in their living room!

GINA the Stand-up - Having fun with the fan who ran around in front of the stage.

Could she do that all for all their shows?

HIGH NOTE - Having a truly cool person get an opportunity to do the Cool Jerk with the girls on stage. Yeah!

You go girl!

Gina asking the stage bouncers to lighten up and let fans come up to the stage.

LOW NOTE - The stage nazi's relentlessly trying to keep the fans from coming up to the stage and dance.  jeez........

WORTH NOTING - Picking up a few souvenirs afterwards.

Great burgers!
