Happy Hour

Yesterday, our group that meets every Wednesday to play music, provided entertainment for a happy hour here at IBE. We played from 4:00-6:00 with only a short break in the middle. We had eight musicians and half of them are additions to the group this year. All the new players are French Canadians but music finds a way to get around the language barrier.

Here is a short sample of some of the music that we played. When the second song starts (Achy Breaky Heart) watch the line dancers. As more people get out on the floor, you will eventually see a gentleman with a cane join the group. He will be 100 years old in July and he goes to line dancing classes here at IBE every week.

Marietta 73- Capital 48


The Pioneers were trailing 26-27 at halftime but came out shooting in the second half. Trevor had 11 points after scoring 26 last Saturday. The starters got to rest quite a bit at the end because of the lopsided score.

The link below is a video clip from WTAP-NBC Parkersburg, WV. When the game video starts, watch for Trevor hitting a three pointer from the corner. Marietta is now in a first place tie in the conference with Capital and John Carroll. They play John Carroll in Marietta on Saturday.

Crafty Sue

Here are the two projects that Sue has been working on for the last couple of weeks. She has one more basket project that will start next week. That one is a small basket that is designed to hold salt and pepper shakers. She tells me that it will be the most difficult to make because of the smaller size. Stay tuned.
