Bluesgrass in BA & another estancia


Ok, so this post will be long with no pictures. or maybe one pic. I will add tons of pictures tomorrow. SO. Friday night I went to this bluegrass jam in SoHo palermo at an art gallery and there was this guy that was performing from Chapel Trill, AP knew him. Well this guys was incredible. He went though the history of Bluegrass from Irish (celtic), blues, country blues, old time, gospel, etc. He played several different instruments like the harmonica when he was singing blues, he played the banjo and the violin it was completely incredible. This guy was truly a musician and it was a definite refresher for Country music 101. I knew a lot of what he was referring too. That was my friday night and I also had my first champagne it was really strong but good.
Saturday you know about because I blogged.


And now for today. Today we went to a more touristy estancia like an 1 and a 1/2 away from home. Itwas awesome. When we arrived there they had empanadas out to eat. We could ride horses and a carriage. I rode a horse and it was so liberating. I did really feel bad for the horses
because they just have to ride people around all day. After that we had a GREAT feast. I am talking about rounds after rounds of meat! : ) then they played some traditional dance and music which was once again amazing. and then they had the horse show. The horse show had to be my favorite. Not only did they have horse gymnastics where horseman were balancing on two horses at one time but they had horse yoga. This horseman/gaucho was doing yoga with a horse it was CRA CRA : ). The gaucho also play this game where they have to put this metal rod through this ring and if they do it they get to give the girl the ring and she gives him a kiss .. ♥

guess what.. I got a ring : ) .. lol. it was really really fun. Some people do not really enjoy tourist traps but they do serve a purpose. I really got to learn about different things in a fun overboard way. It made me smile : )

After our estancia trip, we finally had fellowship and it was really what I needed and I think a
lot of other people needed to. We were able to just really lift people up and ask them what they needed and how this trip was for them and you really committed to praying for the group and their certain needs/desires. It was truly a blessing and I was so encouraged especially to hear just people being honest with themselves. Pat also had a word for me and it was that I was a sunset that I truly has this aroma of sun and light and that just brought real humblest to me. I know that is God and I am so thankful that he has given me his joy to share with the world. I have just really been learning about My Story, God's Glory.

After prayer you know exactly where I went. ECLIPSE again. this time it was so different for me. I really have to read the book now. but it just struck me that it is possible to love two people at one time but you always have to make a choice. it just really sucks for the other people. when I was reading the book. I was never really fond of Jacob but in movie I really had to give him credit because he did all he could. he did not want to live life regretting not trying to get the girl he loves. that makes sense. But that was my night. today i thought a lot about someone who I never really got on right terms with and I wonder if I need to do something about it. I am going to pray about it and seek God's face because relationships like that are so dangerous, especially if you want to wrong a right without getting sucked back in.
