I see the validity in some of your agreemunt, but I have to agree with Mark, interest in football completely dies after the Super Bowl. I think it was a smart move by Goodell to make it the week before the super. You really think having a few of the roster spots lost to superbowl contestants is the biggest issue??? What I can believe is that you failed to mention the blatant shortfall of the Pro Bowl; that these guys aren’t even playing at the level they played in high school! That’s what’s wrong with the Pro Bowl, and I don’t blame them. Why risk your career on a meaningless game, and why play football half-assed? I like the idea of having the pro bowlers play basketball. One last thing, as a sports writer aren’t you ashamed that you rated a football players’ talent based on his fantasy worth?

We also tend to do a little of both. When we went to Yellowstone for our ohoeymnon, our cabin in Island Park had a minifridge, toaster, microwave, coffeepot, and gas grill and a small, overpriced grocery store about 15 minutes away So we got stuff for breakfast (think toast and cereal bars), creamer (since coffee was provided by the resort), pop, a case of bottled water to take to the park with us, and stuff to cook out a couple of nights. It definitely saved us some money, and we probably would have gotten more if we’d had more frige room!

Wowser! You had some great runs this week! Nice job! I hope you are enjoying your trip in Tahoe. We also used to grorecy shop on trips. With 6 girls eating out for every meal would have been ridiculous. Chris & I have not been on many trips together but the few we have we’ve gone grorecy shopping and eaten in as much as possible. We usually go on a tight budget so eating out every meal is definitely not an option.

Awesome day for tailgating and a game. I’m kinda eaulojs of your cute, mini-grill! Love the blue/white sprinkled ice cream too! Your description of the UNC campus reminded me of my own campus (Indiana University) and I totally miss tailgating too!

to our host I love that you all have cornhole aaialvble to play and our host corrected me saying, we prefer to say lawn toss . I stood corrected, but I could have taken her down with my mad underhanded throwing skills!

What a great post for this day! I try to take time to just enjoy the day. I’m grateful we live in a small town – we’re only a short dacitnse from the big city, though. If I want to give my “slow down” a little boost, I go there and come back relishing the slowness of our little town.

You’ve highlighted the aepcst I miss MOST of American culture our particular style of outdoor eating, meaning barbeques and tailgating, dogs and burgers and brats, a cooler spilling over with seasonal longnecks, and corn on the friggin’ cob.

This is the greatest idea I have seen in a long time and I met the guys that came up with this idea, they are just as FINE as the game!!!!! Loving it in San Antonio!!! Stay COOL, Cool Toss Crew

I went to East Carolina University, and I majored in Business & Marketing Education. I’m still not sure if I want to get a Masters in a uisbness field or an education field. We were planning to visit Oxford this past weekend, but it didn’t work out. Wahhhhh. We’re still planning to go later this year or early next year, though. We’re really excited!

Bahh a volte non vi capisco qutsee a mio parere sono immagini in game precalcolate, e della Wii.Anche perch un fottuto 360 fa decisamente di meglio.finalmente qualcosa di veramente decente a livello tecnico. Mario Galaxy e molto curato come titolo, ma altrettanto poco ricco di particolari e nemici su schermo. ma questo e voluto ovviamente come tutti i mario in 3D.Niente di cui sbalordirsi, e quello che avrebbero dovuto fare dall’inizio.Anche se devo ancora papire come ditte come la Capcom che ha sfornato RE4 su Gamecube, non riesca a proporre un titolo devente a distanza di 3 anni sulla Wii, contando che il Kit di sviluppo sostanzialmente e lo stesso.

I certainly apcerpiate the folding nature of the wagon and the metal frame seems solid. Plastic end caps are not particularly tenaciously placed and after less than a few hours, I have noticed 1 plastic end cover is MIA and 2 are loose. Some damage was evident soon after arrival. There was a tear in the fabric lining on one side and at least one joint was broken. I did not immediately notice the broken joint, and I needed the wagon immediately as I was on vacation and had it delivered to my lodging. It did not prevent me from using the wagon, which the kids love, but it can’t be good for the long term durability. Also, the canopy did not come in the box. Calling the company resulted in them notifying me that they will send one to me when it comes back in stock in a couple of weeks. The wagon is definitely an attention getter, but I found out that at Disney World, you cannot take it into the theme park. Because one has to pull it, not push it (due to the placement of the rotating wheels as opposed to the fixed axis wheels), it is considered a tripping hazard. It was kept in customer relations for the day and I was given a voucher for a free stroller rental. If I can shore up the damaged parts, it still ought to be useful on the boardwalk or at a picnic.

I come from a vacation greocry-shopping family as well. Typically our vacations tend to be with extended family (cousins, aunts, uncles), so the greocry shopping and the meals all seem more exciting because there are other people with us our food repertoire automatically increases due to everyone’s different skills and preferences in the kitchen. Have fun on the rest of your trip!!

!We tend to do some of both eating in and out while atvreling. My family rarely took big trips growing up because of the farm, but we did one multi-day car trip I can remember and we definitely had a big food cooler. The H and I don’t travel a ton, but I always at least pack atvreling snacks.
