Saw this shirt on Shirt.Woot.com today – had to share with my fellow BBQ buddies.  If you are a BBQ fan, you will love this Evolution of BBQ shirt…

This shirt is too sweet, and I just picked me one up.  But just like everything on Woot… it won’t be around for long at 10$, so if you want it, better get to it!  (hat tip: @zealotonastick)

Our Memorial Day Weekend In Ruidoso, NM

We visited Ruidoso, New Mexico – which we do usually once a year.  It is about a 5 hour drive from Midland and gives us an escape to the mountains & cool weather.  Not to mention there is a horse track, casinos & for the ladies… shopping.

So this past weekend we did some of this…

Golf @ Ponderosa Pines in Cloudcroft, NM

Shala @ Ponderosa Pines in Cloudcroft NM

We stopped & smelled the “flowers”…

We enjoyed the hummingbirds at our camp…

We bet on horses at Ruidoso Downs Racetrack… and this one paid us off…

Needless to say, it was a great weekend in Ruidoso.  Not everything worked out as planned, we didn’t win big at the track or the casino… but we enjoyed be there.  Being with each other.  Being with our family.

How was your Memorial Day weekend?  Do anything fun?  How did you celebrate?  Do share.

The Racist Odd Couple

This past weekend I went on a short fishing trip with some friends and early Sunday morning, as I pulled out of the camp site and onto the main highway – I spotted this pair of friends.

What a strange site as I rounded the corner.  We had seen this large bull the night before when we were pulling into camp, but his little friend wasn’t there with him at the time.  I am no bird expert, but I have seen this bird walking the shallow water eating bait fish on several occasions – just don’t know the name. 

I assume they are a racist duo, as they were seemingly mocking the black cows and birds – same with the brown ones.  **shakes head** Chatting away as I drove by…  one of them said something about Obama (my bird is a lil rusty – but it was something about gun control). 

In all seriousness – it was a neat photo opp and glad I could share these guys with you.
