Scottish Games Aug 30th





Cowboy and i went to the Scottish Games on saturday. It was slightly over cast but no rain. We didn't enter into any of the log throwing contests or kilt twirling.. even thought I thought Cowboy could win in the kilt twirling.. He wasn't feeling it...



So we settled for a couple beer and some music and of course food( for me)
We walked around and checked out the vendors..
I found some Bokken swords ( and no I don't have a lisp) that i have been wanting to get but never did... and well i got them this time!! wooo hoooo


So Cowboy and I are going to practice sword fighting.. well at least that is my story...
They also sold whips but to my dismay, ( and cowboy's delight) we didn't buy any.

We missed all the bagpipe playing and drums that we saw last year..

Doto and Cozzen came over for dinner. hung out by the fire and had a nice relaxing night... Life is grand!!!!! I love you Cowboy...

Bike day






Ok today was a great day weather wise so Michelle, Doto, and I went for a ride up to Vermont... We took rt. 29 to 373 to 313 to 7a and ended up in Manchester....



What a great day for a ride, seems like the weather is going to be nice the rest of the riding season.....

After we got to Manchester Doto kept saying lets go to the brewery....lol....Harpon is in Vermont near White River Junction I think, however that would have been another two hours and we were not going to head that far today...Maybe at the end of Sept or early Oct and most likely it will be an over nite....No sense going if you cant stop to enjoy the beverage.......


I'm sure there will be pictures of this ride to follow( as soon as Michelle gets them loaded).....

TGIF

Well today was just a day to hang out clean the pool and nap....Heading out tonight to see a friend of Michelle's band, not sure how long we will be out.

Tomorrow the sun is going to be out again(WOW....all week!!!!!!) so we may head out on the bikes again, then start a fire outside when we get home, if Michelle can stay up that late....LOL...man is she going to get me for this...but I imagine it will take some time cause she will forget we have this blog set up....LOL.....

Ok Michelle is a light weight when it comes to having a drink or two...never seen it like this before but she had two gin & tonics and was gone....oh well....lol....still love her, glad she didnt get sick in my truck....lol....she was just goofy....couldnt stop laughing....

Won that battle of the title...
Cowboy- 0
Michelle-1(she thinks in golf the higher score is better....little does she know IT DOESNT....LOL)

Cowboy and I did go to Lake George..As you can tell by the picture. cowboy really serious about his driving!! lol
We walked around and I took some pictures. Got some lunch ( sample platter with all the "healthy food") and some energy drinks that wound up with gin in them!!

Walked back to store to buy a towel that was cool and to cowboys delight i had my credit card.. damb..(note to self.. pretend you don't have it with you)

We decided to go mini golfing. we have been trying to go for awhile and just never made it there, so today was the day!!




The score was 42-49
and the high score wins! .. what is that ..low score

Then we went to our favorite Mexican Restaurant. Had some awesome Margareta's. I had a very nice day with my sexy husband. (akaox)...he he he he
Cowboy -0
Michelle - 2... xoxox cowboy

Lake George

Well today Michelle and I went to Lake George. Headed out about 1030 am and walked around the village. Went into a few shops, found a pirate blanket for Michelle (guess she wants it in case I need to walk the plank).

Then went to get some lunch, oh forgot Michelle took more pictures, then had lunch. We (I) had a few drinks and by 3 pm we got enough sun and decided it was time to play mini golf...We had to play at the Pirates Cove and I smoked her 42-49 the lower score is the winner (ME).

We then headed to our new favorite restaurant in Saratoga, The Mexican Connection, and had dinner.....

It was a great day sun drinks and fun....couldn't have asked for anything more...

It starts



Well its been three days since the I Do's, and all is well....Ok, if we dont count the, turn here, go that way, watch it, turn up here, from Michelle on the way home from Lake Placid. I knew I was going to get a partner for life, not a co-pilot...Oh well.....

We had a great time for the few days we were away, and weather. Thanks to everyone that could make it on our special day. It couldnt have been done without you, mainly because we needed two witnesses to sign the license...lol....

Today Michelle and I started out on the bikes and headed to Vermont, but I changed course and we ended up at The Saratoga Battlefield (good place to start a marriage I thought) the weather was great (wow how many more days of sun can we take).
