Wild & Fun Memorial Day Weekend and one bad hair day


I wanted to have one great 3 day weekend so I started early..on Thursday, I went out to Mexican food then went to see Shun Yen dancers, which was interesting and worth seeing.

Friday I went to the Casino and won $280.00..I rarely gamble and never go with more than $50..play the slots (pennies)

Bad Hair day is a great metaphor for the next 24 hours:
Saturday..I got up and went for a long bike ride on the Centennial trail..that was a blast! Had lunch in a nice place close to the river..all the trees are in bloom and the wildflowers were all about. Later that afternoon I went to a tailgate party for our local AF2 football team..drank some beers and threw a football around etc. When we arrived in the parking lot and removed the chairs and cooler...my friend had hit the electronic door lock switch and also had left his keys on the seat..my door was still open so I grabbed some pretzels then closed the door..uh ohhhh..car locked!

So he called AAA and they had a locksmith right out to open his rig. So if that wasn't bad enough...he put out chairs with side trays and didn't lock them..when I went to put our food on them, they collapsed..spilling everything on the ground...partial my fault as well for not checking them..

We get inside and I almost go over the upper rail when someone accidentally tripped me..I had to clear the 4 rows of seats otherwise I would have been really hurt..I landed right in front of a 4 foot wall with a rail and went half way over it..spilling the full beer in my hand on the heads of about 10 people below..Security came and asked me what happened....it was all good.

So what a night that was .. Made it home safely


Sunday I went on another long bike ride..went out to dinner...rented some movies and made popcorn

Monday I lounged around the house..worked on the garden..mowed the lawn and watered it...then had an awesome barbecue of marinated pork ribs smoked in apple-wood..potato salad and smoked beans...yummmm

so that was my holiday..rather enjoyable wouldn't you say? and let's not forget unusual
