Girls gettin' into trouble at the Scene Lounge...



Ladies night out for Happy Hour at the Scene Lounge. Our tables turned orange once all of the sweet potato fries came out!





I took some pics for you Rebecca...Rachel is due in a few weeks, but she thinks she will have the baby before then. Before saying goodbye at the end of the night, we were all rubbing the pregnant ladies bellies :) (I sort of put Rachel on the spot, but once she found out the pic was for you, she was a trooper!)

Not a bad a weekend

The weekend began with golf on Friday afternoon, sunny and 83. Jim and I tore up the Muni. The guy who hit a 320 yd tee shot ran 8 beers deep which required an auxiliary cooler. His cart was flirtin' with some "three-wheel motion" as one side of his golf bag was slightly heavier than the other.

Jim bombed a huge drive, check out the gang signs 3-2 as in 320 yards. The comment was "Take that, Josh."

This was also a huge drive, 032 yards.


Then the following day Julie and I met Jim and Jamie at a "yacht club" near Ditto Landing. (Pics of the yacht club next time. The yacht club included a confederate flag and grandmas smoking Camel no-filters.) Anyway, we cruised out on the TN river and kicked it like Puff Daddy at Cabo. Except we had Coors Light and Southpaw instead of Patron and Cristal. The girls slammed some mixed (virgin) drinks.

On the way back, Jim dropped the hammer and we cruised like Crockett and Tubbs. We had the Miami Vice theme song blaring. The rumor has it, on the way home Jim bought a white linen suit and white shoes with no socks.

Not a bad weekend.......

Big Spring area...


I know you both miss the ugly ducks! I was out and about yesterday early afternoon taking pictures to collect more of my alphabet photography collection and decided to take some pics of the Big Spring area for you. Panoply was going on, so I could not go on the other side of the big pond, but have no fear...the ugly ducks are always near!!

Monte Sano fun...



Brad and I decided because it was such a beautiful day (and he needed a break from studying for his last and FINAL exam ever!) that we would drive up to Monte Sano for a picnic dinner. We ate right by the first parking lot on the right that you can turn into when you get past the Monte Sano gate. I took almost the same picture of the water fall that I took in February. Look how green everything has gotten! It sure was a nice Sunday. Brad has t-minus 48 hours until he completes his Masters Degree with UAH!!

Leaving Huntsvegas...

This picture is of gloomy looking Minnesota...a boring drive to Rochester where my sister had more doc appointments, lab work and other stuff... MN is such a beautiful state, but I think we drove through the most boring part...





Brad and I headed for the North for my cousin's wedding in cold cold cold Wisconsin. They still had big snow patches in the parking lots and on our way back home...it was a white out snowy mess around Chicago...I wasn't that surprised though...
