ChalkShirts Goes to Leavenworth WA
Earlier this spring I went with my family to the Alpen town of Leavenworth.
What a neat town! It was surrounded by beautiful mountains, had a gorgeous river running through it, a really neat downtown with lots of fun shops and restaurants, the Nutcracker Museum, and wonderful music in the town square.
I found many occasions to write on my Chalk Shirt. One was while listening to the music. I have always enjoyed Bavarian music and this group was not an exception. They had great upbeat tunes and of course, "Yodeling," and I like yodeling. Because I can write, erase & write again, I was perpetually changing the message or drawing on my shirt. I the upright base player found it very amusing and I even got him laughing a couple of times. As you can see below, one of the messages that I wrote was, "Yodeling Rocks!"
As Leavenworth has much to offer the traveler, we moved on and so did my message. It now read, "Top of the morin' to you." I was outside a shop waiting for my crew (family) to come out when a couple walked passed me. They suddenly stopped, reversed course, looked closely at my shirt, then quizzically asked, "Didn't you have a shirt on that said "Yodeling Rocks!"?" I erased "Top of the mornin'" and wrote "Yes." They thought it was a kick, smiled big and went on to enjoy the rest of their day.
As you can imagine I had many other opportunities to brighten some body's day. For instance, when we were at the Nutcracker Museum I was inspired to dawn a chalk drawing of a nutcracker on my shirt. Or when we were at the Gelato Store "Viadolde!" I wrote "I love Gelato." It put a big smile on their face and the gentleman behind the counter asked if he could get "a shirt like that?"
"Yes, absolutely! Go to Chalkshirts.com."
We had a wonderful trip to Leavenworth and my Chalk Shirt got a lot of use.
