Don’t let this cloudy weather fool you, it was HOT!!
Jim and Jeff giving Kelli an escort.
The funny thing about this was there was a song playing that kept repeating the words “Reveal the goddess in you” in Spanish.
All the beer has made us hungry.
So we ate, drank, and took pictures.
They did too, but they forgot their camera, so I took a picture for them.
The main stage where someone was playing psychedelic music.
Sarah checks out the facilities…
Why yes, beautiful woman, I will let you serve me a beer.

Brian really had to go to the bathroom, and couldn’t stand still.
Brian Shadrick, on the other hand, could stand still but was still learning how to hold a camera correctly.
Maybe I shouldn’t have worn black.
And Ryan plays the drums.
He doesn’t really know how to play all of them, but he looks super cool.
Voted best looking couple at the party.

Old Glory.
This plaque has the names of all those onboard the flight when it went down.

Shoot, it was dropped on the floor, someone find it.
Chuck found it, now what do we do with it?
Well, could I really say something that would supersede what you see in the picture?
We tried to get Rob to wash the fly down with a glass of water, but he wasn’t havin’ it.
I think Sarah and Jeff make quite the couple.
Well, after a long summer (trip to Europe, 5 weddings, 4 trips to OC, trip to FL, trip to PA, etc.), Kelli decides to take a nap. See ya at the end of Fall!!!!
