David and Andrew Book 2: With These Rings

Since my trip to Toledo, Brad had stopped bringing his girl-type friends home. I didn’t know whether I was comfortable with that, as I felt it was probably because he didn’t feel as free around me. Be that as it may, he was home and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Our conversations were easy and relaxed. We laughed, talked and generally were the family we always had been.


The first show I attended was at the Pavilion on the MSU campus. Andy and Brad went with me for moral support. It had been about 12 years since Meg had shown this circuit; I wondered if I would know any of the people.


We arrived on Friday afternoon and got Snazzy all settled in his stall. After a detour into town to check into our motel, we returned to the show grounds and headed for the warm-up pens to see what was going on.
