The Saints Kick Some Super Bowl Butt

Last night’s Super Bowl game was a great game. I think that I actually enjoyed the game more than the commercials this year, that is a first. I did enjoy watching The Who perform some of their hits at half time, their music and the light show was fabulous, where as their singing voices left a lot to be desired. But then again we are all getting older.

I’m glad that the Saints won.

Boxing match

One of my wife’s best ideas ever was to buy my father a couple of Mayweather boxing tickets for the big fight coming up in March in Las Vegas.  I know that Dad and Mom have been wanting to go to Las Vegas for a second honeymoon for a long time now, and we think that this is a good time for them to finally take it.  Now we’re trying to get them a good rate on a nice place to stay and make up an itinerary for the rest of their travel arrangements.  Dad has been a big boxing fan for as long as I can remember, and he’s really excited about the trip and the match!

Riding and roping

Bill loves the rodeo, and he has been encouraging me to go to a rodeo with him.  But not just any rodeo – he wants to go to the Houston Rodeo next March.  Naturally he wants to tie it into a family vacation so we all go down for several days and include the rodeo as part of the vacation.  He says he can get the best Action RodeoHouston tickets online for all of us.  He explained to me that the Action seats are the ones where the audience get the closest possible to the ringside action without actually becoming part of the show themselves!

I’ve always marvelled at the skills of the rodeo participants.  It’s hard to tell which event is my favorite.  I enjoy watching the skills of the contestants in the roping contests; I’ve always wanted to learn how to rope!  But I think that the bull riding contest has to be the most exciting because I just cannot even imagine being in the right frame of mind to climb on top of a bull who is intent on getting you off of him as fast as possible!

I’d also really enjoy going to see one of the concerts after the rodeo.  I went online to see what concerts are lined up, and I guess it is too early right now to make that decision because there are a lot of performances still to be announced.

Having fun in an RV

I’ve always wanted to go camping in an RV as an adult.  I used to go with my family when we were younger, and I’d like to see that type of activity through the eyes of an adult.  I can remember as a young boy my parents took us in their tow-along RV to a gettysburg camping park.  It happened to be a very cold time of year, but I don’t remember exactly when it was.  I do remember though that the poor little RV had a really tough time keeping us all warm through the cold snap!

I think if I were to go pa rv camping again as an adult, I’d make sure to go during warm weather months!  And I’d make sure that the RV’s air conditioner and heater were in great shape, just in case the weather got extreme.  And I’d make sure that I’d review the different pennsylvania RV Parks carefully to make sure that the amenities were more than a simple trailer hook-up with water, sewer and electric.  Or at least be close to some attractions that would be fun to go see!  Just sitting around the RV can get boring after a while!
