Hunka-Hunka Music

We saw an Elvis impersonator at the Clearfield Co. Fair on Saturday and though I don't consider myself an all-out Elvis fan, I seem to gravitate to his music. I've seen some really good shows in Vegas that I thoroughly enjoyed and until this weekend I wondered why. I think it's in every young girl's life to find a movie during those middle school years that you want to see over and over again and makes an impact on you to last a lifetime. For me I think it was Elvis' movies Love Me Tender and Blue Hawaii. We didn't see many movies back then but these were the first ones I remember seeing at the theater. I also remember what my daughter's wanted to see at that age - Lesley and her friends were into Top Gun and Allison and all her friends saw Titanic over and over. I also remember all the Disney movies coming out when Allison was young and how we looked forward to the next one. I really miss going to the movies but I have the next best thing now - plays at the Reitz Theater in DuBois. My hubby stopped going to the movies a long time ago but he enjoys the plays so I take him up on it every chance I get. Next weekend we'll see The Great American Trailer Park Musical! That should be pretty interesting if nothing else but I just found out today that his cousin has the lead male role. I'm sure they'll do a great job.
