Maggie went on her first vacation which was to Jamestown, New York, for the Lucy Desi Festival. Lucy Arnaz was here so we get to see her tomorrow. We left Muskegon at 7 a.m. and stopped near Battle Creek. Then, we stopped at these outlet stores we saw near the I-80/I-69 highway. Maggie liked everyone petting her. She is a good little traveler. She slept most of the time.
Anyway, we got to Jamestown around 6:30 p.m. Jamestown is about a 495 mile trip. I forgot how long it was to drive here. I was quite tired from this past week of being on the go and working. Mom and I took turns driving. I think my medication also makes me a little more tired too, especially in the mornings.
We got to the hotel and let Maggie roam in the room. She looked so happy.
She ran all over checking out everything. I think she was enjoying the traveling
like we do.
Mom and I had dinner at this Italian restaurant which was quite good. Mom had
Italian wedding soup and I had lasagna. It was a big plate of lasagna, too. Then,
we came back to the room and got Maggie and walked down to watch
"Lucy Under the Stars". They played "I Love Lucy" shows on a building.
It was nice to sit outside, too. Maggie was real good.
Lucy Arnaz did a little show and then cut the ribbon. In the beginning, it started to rain, so they had to stop the program for about 5 minutes. But, then the rain stopped and they could continue. We took Maggie to the gravesite of Lucille Ball. Also, we took a tour at the playhouse. They have reproductions of the New York apartment sets and the California apartment sets. I snuck in a couple of pictures too. Saturday evening, we went to the show, 'Tribute to Desi Arnaz' which was presented by his daughter, Lucy Arnaz. It was quite good. Then, the highlight of our evening was the Gala we attended at this mansion. It was pretty neat. We got to meet the actors who played the twin cowboys (Timmy and Jimmy) in one of theI Love Lucy episodes. They were 11 yrs old at the time that episode was done. They are now in their 60s. We also met this lady, Angela, who is the personal manager for Sebastian, who owns this laughter Yoga school in LA. They were on the April 11th Oprah show and telling about this new type of yoga that is becoming popular. My mom and I got to meet Lucy Arnaz and had our picture taken with her. She sure has a cute figure.
She must work out alot to keep it up. Lucy Arnaz is quite nice.
