Fun Friday's

Yeah! The weekend is here - again. Anyone who knows me by now, knows Thursday evenings and Fridays are my favorite. Not sure, why? I guess maybe over the years, only good things seem to happen these days and nights of the week. Saturdays, are okay, but I have had some up and down ones.

This weekend our Fun Friday has me wishing I was not home. Kinda wish I was here this weekend -

Or, here for some fresh seafood and mango with mischievous chattering monkey's hoping about -

Actually, maybe eating some Calamari, or any other heavenly Greek dish here -
Actually, I am not picky. Eating some trail mix and backpack/campfire cuisine at any of these locations would be pretty swell as well -

Yet, here I am. In the fabulous Las Vegas Valley. Which given, has been just at 80 degrees or less the last 3 days - no complaints. Also, another day of Soccer awaits. Nothing says Spring Saturdays to me of late than Soccer on natural green grass.

Oh, yeah. How could I forget I will be running as well. Wow, what a difference a few days makes. Today, ZERO. I mean ZILCH - nothing, no pain and the previously injured ankle has never felt so good. Well, within at least the last 2 weeks. To be honest, and oddly enough the non injured one feels tired and stiff compared to the other. Weird, but I will take whatever my 43 old body can give.

As me Mom used to always say - Life is just that, LIFE! Live it!

Good luck Glenn at the LA Marathon!! Everyone else as well - LIVE IT!

Slice of Slomo Happiness:
1. Drifting and falling in love. At least that is my life with my wife.
2. Happy kids who never give up on the Soccer field, or making new friends.
3. Being raised in the Seattle area.
4. University of Washington
5. Fish and Chips. Eating them on a dock, off the Puget Sound as the Sun does down. Or, on top of the hill at Gasworks Park.
6. Alex Chilton, Stan Getz, Chet Baker, Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain, Swing Out Sister ("Fool buy a smile, you'll regret, wont forget, what you left behind.")
7. Trap, pass, shoot and SCORE!
8. Health
9. Education
10. B WHO U B 

Cheers!

I'd take Fish-n-Chips on Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey too! Not too shabby. Glad you're feeling good Slomo - have a great Friday!
