Albany Fandangle

Thursday night, we attended the 73rd Annual Albany Fandangle. The Fandangle is an outdoor musical directed and performed by only Albany citizens. My grandfather wrote a few of the songs YEARS ago, and my mom was in the show every year growing up. I love seeing an entire community coming together to continue a strong tradition. The show was fantastic! The show runs 6 nights every June, so plan to go next summer! The show started at 8:45 and by then the weather was perfect...no heat and no mosquitos! That's is rare in West Texas!

Before the show was a great parade which included the new MAYOR MAXEY! Ty and Kyleigh (Bill's grandkids) loved riding with my mom.
My mom had a fan club watching! Seated in the chairs...Natalie (our old neighbor), her daughter, Cathy (her mother), Scott, my aunt, and my uncle. After dinner we ate bbq at a park.Dave and I met in April of 2000 and spent a few days together at A&M while I was visiting and Dave was a senior. The next time I saw him was in June that summer when I went to the Fandangle with my family and we invited Dave to join us. That night, I never thought I would attend the show eleven years later with Dave as my husband!
