Rememberence of the Fourth 2010

As the Fourth of July approaches and the lake gets in full swing for the summer, we must remember those who have lost their lives due to utter stupidity. I mean, crossing the road to get to a beer might be a good idea in theory, but was it really worth it? We definitely enjoyed a good laugh on the way to the store in the morning on Sunday! Kay, a Texas girl through and through, had to capture a piece of famous roadkill. Keep in mind SAFETY, above all, on the streets between The Dock and lakehouses. They're dark and two lane. In fact just take your boat, no armadillos will be harmed in the process!! PS. Forget the Bud Light, stick with the Dock Rockers!

Fort Worth Air Show 2011


Unbelievable how close these guys get to each other!! Before the show they start out by taxiing to the active runway in formation even. Sunday the active was 17 with a mean headwind tossing around the small planes. At the beginning of their show, the Blue Angels do several passes with only 18 inches from wingtip to the capsule of the plane beside it!! This is God given talent and ability. The Blues' own C-130T Hercules got the crowd pumped up with a super slow flight. Not many people were sitting down for the main event. The music was rocking and the commentator one of the best!! Cleared for takeoff.

Happy Easter!!

Look at the cute chickies!! Nana had these at a coffee in Mississippi before she came to Dallas. She and Kay made them with pretzel sticks, white chocolate, Jelly beans and marshmallow chicks!! They didn't actually look like they would taste good, but anything covered in chocolate has to be delicious!!

Then, here is my Easter basket!! Lots of tea for me!! Along with chocolate covered pretzels and Godiva chocolate Gems!! The Easter bunny was super nice to me. Hope he is just as nice to you ; )
