That's right, you read it right-- Actor's Day Out. We had a lazy start today and managed to mozy out of the house around noon, heading for an incognito walk along Campbell's Greenway near our home. We pulled into the parking lot (note our red Mustang above) and were promptly followed by a news van. We headed for the nearest bench and sat down to enjoy our picnic lunch of cheese and cucumber sandwiches because we had already worked up an appetite just driving there. We were savoring our first taste of sandwich when we were approached by a man in a business outfit, apologizing for interupting our chewing. He introduced himself as being from Channel 9 news and wanted to know if he could get our opinions on Charlotte's city council's vote on preserving more greenways for recreational use and wildlife. We explained that we just got here to Charlotte but were happy to oblige. So there you have it! We make our appearance on the news tonight, supposedly, but we have no TV connection to see if it happens. All I could think about while Paul was talking was, "Is my hair ok?" and "Dang it, forgot my lipstick!" Not really, but what are the chances of having something so random as that happening? Pretty darn funny, I'd say. The Channel 9 news website has the video at http://www.wsoctv.com/news/14036642/detail.html if you want to see Paul in action, with a cameo appearance by yours truly. The article has the video to the right hand side with a picture of a bulldozer on the front. Just click on play!
The man of the TV himself..... Mr. Paul Teague
After our interview we packed up and headed on our walk of the greenway. Here's a colorful butterfly we saw on the way.
And for you fishing enthusiasts (Dad), there are little pockets even in Charlotte.
