Don't know why I never thought of posting this link, but here it is -- a link to my son's (Will's) post on the night we went to the Paul Simon concert in OKC.
In 2010, just a few months after he had graduated from college, for Christmas Will got me a really nice Starbucks coffee mug (which I still use). But in 2011, he got me a ticket to see Paul Simon. And one for Mendy (Will's mom and my wife of 28 years), too. I felt very good that he was gainfully employed. And you can see why we're so proud of him and his sweet wife Holly.
Not only is it a blog post, but there is some one-of-a-kind video, which Will took when he was about 6 feet from Paul as he and the band did an impromptu set in the lobby before the actual concert. Wow. It was a grand sing-a-long-with-Paul on some of his older hits. We all knew the words. We all joined him. Probably everyone cried. It was incredible. I may never go to another concert again because no concert experience could ever match this one.
So, if you get a chance, read his post, watch the videos. Happy Saturday.
