Out on the Town

The local tradition is to head to the Chu-Hi shack for TGIF. Chu-Hi is a local drink, kind of like vodka that packs quite a punch...it was a bit sweet for me, so I just had one and finished the night with some beers. These are my friends Diane and Karin...and this is a friendly guy that decided we were lots of fun.
Here's the whole group on our way to Budweiser...the local Karaoke bar. It was nice to chat and socialize with people outside of work for a change.
Cheers!
This friendly local man decided that he wanted to join our friend who was singing. He of course brought his own harmonica to provide back-up.
My new friend Shekita and her daughter Dallas went to a Japanese ballet last weekend. We got all gussied up and headed to the theater. We are lucky that this theater is so close in Yokosuka and it actually has big named performers. The ballet was different...more like a drama in the first half and then more Russian ballet style for the second half. The men's outfits were the highlight of the show...flesh toned and extremely form fitting. You will just have to come here and witness it for yourself...just don't have a mouthful of food...it may just make you spit it out in surprise!

I have been reading all the posts about Riverton High School and hometown football, so I was feeling a bit homesick for a night under the lights. Me and a couple of friends went to Kinnick High School (our local school on base) versus Yokota High School (the local air force base). Unfortunately, Kinnick didn't perform so well...0 to 42. Not good, but my game time nachos were! I also thoroughly enjoyed the band's halftime show!
