Yesterday I went over to Genoa Nevada which is outside of Carson City not far from Reno, for their annual Cowboy Poetry and Music festival!! Had the most wonderful time strolling the streets and chatting with folks about different things.
However the icing on my cake was open mic, I had just happened to walk by where it was all set up and without really thinking, asked the lady if I could read a couple of poems, totally cold and not prepared something was telling me I should do this. She agreed and in a few minutes she was introducing me and there I was reading the three poems that are here on the blog!!
Needless to say, it was very well received and probably the biggest compliment was Tony Atengo a cowboy poet himself telling me that I had great promise and to keep at it. I was flattered more or less!!!
So here's to a day filled with fun, and BBQ sauce stained hands. Here are some pictures of the event!!
