SeptemberFest

Here are some photos from our day at SeptemberFest on the governor's lawn.

Evalyn got to milk this cow. She was a very sweet cow.



Here is Evalyn with Governor Henry! Lisa and Evalyn stood in a long line around the Oklahoma shaped swimming pool to get a piece of centennial birthday cake and meet the governor (while I got ready to perform).



Evalyn posed with the CenTOONials. She was also interviewed by a TV reporter! (We don't know if her interview aired or not.)



Evalyn had her face painted by a clown. She was very philosophical about it when it came time to wash the butterfly off her face. The paint was temporary, she says, but the photo will last forever.



And here I am, performing my Oklahoma songs. It was a fun day!

SeptemberFest



Here I am working on a new song called "1907." I'll bet you can guess what it's about, especially if you live in Oklahoma. That's right, I'm still writing songs for our centennial! I hope to be able to share this one with you soon.

"What happened to 'Born to Do Science'?" you ask. Well, it has always been my great weakness that I have difficulty in choosing a focus. I guess I don't have to be quite so dramatic about it. I can just say my current window of opportunity to work on the science project has closed. I need to focus on my Oklahoma program right now. I'll get back to the other when I can.

Come see me at SeptemberFest at the governor's mansion in OKC on Saturday (9/1/07)! I perform at 1:30, and I'll be singing some of my Oklahoma songs. The event lasts from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with all kinds of cool stuff going on to celebrate our statehood!
