Bright Landscaping Annual Triathalon, Etc.
I am in Nor-Cal now and have had some more interesting experiences on the farm. In no particular order:
1. I, too, have had the pleasure of being body-slammed by the llama. Knocked to the ground, barely getting up in time to get this putrid awful stomach contents sprayed all over me. It smelled like feces. It was disgusting (and scary). I yelled for Dad and he came running swining a rope around his head and Mom came running and throwing sticks at him with the fire of a mother protecting her young in her eyes. I survived...and rushed to the shower. The next time I went in Max's field, I took the cattle prod (long electicuting stick) and had to use it to keep him away.
2. I went to an airshow and saw the Canadian Snowbirds and got VIP treatment because by brother's company sponsors part of it. Pretty fly. Hee hee.
3. We had a birthday party at home for me in the fist time in years. Lasagna, carrot cake, presents, candles (sort of), friends, etc. A good time was had by all.
4. Did a mini triathalon sponsored by my brother's fiance's landscape design company (Bright Landscaping). It was lots of fun to do it all with my friends and not be hyper competitive at it like the previous triathlons I've done. And I came in second (behind the birthday girl, his fiance). (2 mile run, short swim, 12 mile bike ride)
5. Had an inpromtu wine-tasting at the B house. Very nice and fun.
6. Fiance, B, made my bridesmaid dress...and it's is incredibly beautiful...red lace over oarnge satin. I know it sounds crazy but it is very bold and striking. Plus it seems like she made it in about two minutes. Wow. She is planning on making her wedding dress, too.
7. And we had a velcro wall at my b-day party. I wanted the theme song to be "Stuck on You." Hah!
8. Watched the glass-blowers at Orient and Flume and loved it. They are incredible with the glass creations they make. I love to watch them come to life.
9. Ate at Sierra Nevada Brewery, one of my favorite restaurants of all time (particularly in this neck of the woods).
10. Get to see my friend, S, and have great Hungarian food and great company.
11. Get so see my family.
Having a good vacation...hope you're having fun, too.
