Laramie Events this weekend – 9-9-2011 to 9-11-2011

I survived last weekend! I volunteered 2 days at the Snowy Range Music Festival and listened to The Neville Brothers and Michael Franti and much more!; listened to Dan Brain sing Jimmy Buffet at Washington Park at the Buddy Walk, listened to the last quarter of the UW vs. Weber State football game were the Cowboys pulled ahead at the last 22 seconds of the game, then watched a great firework show. All that was before Sunday, and then we went on a picnic up in the Snowy’s and went on a hike and fished the whole afternoon. A nap was calling my name after that.

This weekend we have a lot going on as well. Another Wyoming Cowboy home game, Always A Cowboy race, a tour of Laramie Chicken Coops, a Fashion Night in Laramie, a Farmers Market, Audubon Society Field Trip-float the Platte, Dog Gone Race, and the 10^th Year 9-11 anniversary and much more!
