Crusin’ (Jamaica…)

November 16, 2009

We arrived in Jamaica on Wednesday.  We had a guided tour arranged for us through our travel agent.  We got to do a little shopping, went up into the mountains to dine on some coconut, pear, and some type of bread I can’t remember the name of.  Then we had some jerk pork at the Pork Pit(great place with some great atmosphere)

Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee….that big bag of Jablum would have cost over a hundred dollars over here, only cost us twenty dollars.  So we took a bag home along with some cigars…

Okay, we couldn’t figure out what this towel animal was.  Even after we bought our towel animal book, we looked all through it and still couldn’t figure out what this was.  Any guesses?

State Fair Time!

October 19, 2009

This past Saturday, my wife Stephanie and I made our way out to Fair Park for our annual trip to the State Fair, we had a blast, spent some money, walked around enjoying the weather, which was unusual for us, because when we usually go by ourselves, it’s usually cold or raining, or both!  Nope not this year, 72 degrees.  Ate some good food, which what the fair is all about!  We didn’t eat the Fried Butter though, maybe next year!
