Men. Easier Fed Than Understood
I have a fun campaign starting now for all my readers. Ball Park’s “Men. Easier Fed Than Understood” campaign will bring to light the humor behind the quirky and sometimes nonsensical behavior guys take part in when they get together for “guy time”. While the definition of guy time may vary one thing is for sure, they get hungry and that is where Ball Park comes in. They believe that guy time is important, as do I, and that a big part of it is about great-tasting food! Guy Time can include: The backyard barbeque sports statistic debate The Sunday football marathon ...

I have to combine days four and five in one post because day four was a rain out and the only thing we did was go see a IMAX movie about Yellowstone, which was awesome, and had lunch out. After that we swam at the indoor pool for the hotel and vegged out the rest of the day. Was good to have a day of relaxation. But day five was so new and fun, at... [Read more]

Wow the last six months have just flown by, I am in shock that the year is half over. That means my cross country journey will be happening before I know it.
