No Laughing Matter


Our good friend, Patti, invited us and Gary and Dale, to attend a Fundraiser Event for the Wellness Community last evening at the Robert Irsay Party Pavillion. We were also joined by Patti's husband, Garry, and treated to yummy food catered by Bonefish Grill. There was a silent auction, a live auction, and raffles, but the main entertainment was a juggler/comedian/cancer-survivor, Scott Burton. He had the crowd practically in tears (from laughter) through his act. He is an amazing person and has a wonderful outlook on life. One of the amazing things he did was to balance a chair on his chin. While we all thought that was fantastic, he went one further by taking a long, cafeteria table, lifting it overhead, and balancing that on his chin! It was a great event - thanks, Patti and Garry, for inviting us!
