Monday, May 14, 2007 Boobs & Tubes (or where's my drivers license?)
This weekend Craig’s sister Casey graduated from Texas State University in San Marcos, TX. We drove down to New Braunfels on Friday & stayed at The Hideout on the Horseshoe cabins located right on the Guadalupe River. The cabins were really nice & cozy. We had rented three cabins to house all of us… Let’s see, there was Craig & I, Ron & JoEl, Casey, Brennan & Courtney, Michael & his wife & daughter, Patrick & his wife & 3 kids, and Casey’s friends Annie, Diana, Elaine, Sam, Chris, Aaron, Jonathan, & Jason. OK, that makes 23…
Friday night we hung out on the balcony, made fajitas, drank a lot, & got to catch up with everyone that we haven’t seen in a while. JoEl was playing drinking games with Casey & her friends. Michael kept playing this raunchy song called “Titty Bangin’” by Bob Schneider over & over.
Saturday morning we drove the graduation ceremony. It was a nice ceremony, a bit long, but nice. Afterwards we all met outside to get some pictures on the campus lawn. Congratulations Casey!!!!
On Sunday we headed back toward home & stopped at my mom’s house. It was Mother’s Day as well as her birthday. I had sent her flowers for Mother’s Day & I got her a picnic pack for her birthday so she can use it on her history & cemetery travels. Happy Mom Day & Birthday, mom!!!!!
It was a great weekend & we all had a fun time. Now I think we all need a couple days of rest. And my leg still fucking hurts…

We then headed back to the cabins & made ham, turkey, & pesto panini sandwiches for lunch. They were soooo good! We then got ready to go tubing down the river. We all signed our waivers & got loaded onto the buses to take us up river. We were dropped off at the start of the horseshoe & floated back down to the cabins. It took about 1 ½ hours. There were some mild rapids, but mostly it was pretty smooth. Casey brought tons of beer & Jello shots. By the time we got back, everyone was feeling pretty fancy. Once we got back we decided to go again, so about half the group took the bus back up river again. This time we got to hear a story about one of Craig’s brothers. Several years ago 2 of the brothers were out having a good time picking up girls in a Dallas nightclub when one of them suddenly had to go to the bathroom. They searched for an open bathroom, but once they got through a long line, the toilet was out in the open, not even a stall. So they went looking for another bathroom, then after a while he said that the feeling had passed & they went back to the chick hunt. All of a sudden the one brother disappears. He shows back up a while later & announces that they have to leave right now. They get out to the parking lot & he has crapped himself. But even worse, he has shit all over his clothes, his hands, his face, & pretty much everywhere else. Apparently he had tried to rip off the soiled underwear & made the whole situation worse. The other brother kept teasing him, which caused the shitty brother to chase him around with the soiled underwear… OK, gross story, but it was fucking funny at the time…
Anyway, after that story, 2 freaky hick guys wearing army helmets came up to guys in a small boat. They somehow convinced Sam to tie her tube to their boat so they could give her a ride. I’m all thinking “that’s probably not such a good idea!” So she ties onto them & they start off & keep going & going until we can’t even see them anymore. We all got panicky for a while thinking she could have just become a kidnap victim. They finally brought her back after about 15 minutes & kept joking about how we could have her back for $40. We’re all like WTF!?!?!? She finally untied herself from the boat & rejoined our group. We finally get back to the shore & most everyone heads back up to the cabin. During this time I was walking through the water & slipped on the rocks & busted my shin... OUCH!!! That fucking hurt. Casey, Annie, & Sam decide to stay behind & keep drinking on the river. Craig & I start carrying the tubes back up the stairs when we meet a girl from one of the other cabins. We said hello & asked how she was doing. She just went off on this whole story about how her boyfriend will not give her any cock & she is totally mad at him. She then tells us that her boyfriend has been flirting with a friend of hers the whole trip. In fact her friend had hid her driver’s license somewhere on her body & asked the guy to find it for her. He did find it & it was in her panties. The girl said that her friend may do that, but that she was not going to hide her DL in her pussy just so her boyfriend could swipe it like an ATM. Keep in mind that we’ve never met her before, she using very descriptive conversation, & suddenly we know way too much about her vagina at this point, as well as her boyfriend & slutty friend’s business. Craig & I were flipping out on this kooz! She went on & on about the whole pussy thing until we got back to the cabins. At this point she made sure to ask Craig & I to drop by later for drinks. UMMM NO!!! We got back & told everyone about the girl & Michael made the comment that being with her would be like “swinging a baseball bat in a 3 car garage.” EEEWWWWWW!!! I went back down to check on Casey & tell her about it. I’m sitting there talking to the girls & I noticed that Sam’s top had come undone & her nipple was hanging out right in front of me. I alerted her to the exposure & had her promptly put it away. The got out of their tubes & they slipped & fell in a pile. They looked like a pile of fish flailing around on the shore.
The rest of the night was a lot of fun. We just hung out & had barbeque & beers. We also got to hear why Jonathan is called “The Clapper.” Apparently he has a special talent that we were not aware of. His friends call him “The Clapper” because he can make his balls slap against his ass by swing back & forth so it makes a loud clapping sound. I don’t know how low your inhibitions have to get before you feel the need to share this talent with a group of friends, but apparently it can happen. On many occasions, so I was told. Although, this weekend, we did not get to witness his skills…. Pity…

Thursday, May 10, 2007 Blog much? Not really...
I haven't had much too blog about recently. Work has been a pain in the ass lately due to some bad Microsoft patches. Hopefully it will slow down soon. At home it's just been the regular household thing. And I've been playing God of War 2 on PS2 this week, so that's taken up a lot of my time.
I should have an update after the weekend. I'm going down to San Marcos, Tx this weekend for my sister-in-law's graduation. We're gonna go tubing down the Guadalupe river afterwards. Then there is Mother's Day, which also happens to be my mom's birthday.
It's gonna be a fun, but hectic weekend...

Monday, April 23, 2007 Tubing at Loyd Park
This weekend Craig & I decided to go tent camping for 1 night locally here in Dallas. We went to Cedar Hill State Park & they were so full that we could not get a site. I couldn't believe it. I've never seen the park filled to capacity. They have 350+ sites & is one of the larger state parks in Texas. Anyway, after we were turned away there we went to a city run campground, Loyd Park, which was very nice... except for the people staying there. The campers were so loud, blaring their music & riding motorcycles thru the park, even after 11pm, which wouldn't be tolerated in a state park. This one group of teenager was blaring speed metal & screaming until at least 1am. And then there were these 3 teen koozes that kept walking right thru our campsite over & over. I think were trying to be cute & flirtatious, but all I know is that they should've kept their snooches out of my campsite & leave us older queens alone. We're old enough to be their dads & certainly not interested in the least. Maybe they should've flaunted their juvenile wares to the speed metal guys down the way, they may have gotten a better response, or maybe even an STD. Nothing against women, but I can't stand girls that act all cute & obnoxious to get attention, thinking that they have a "Super-Clitastic-Magi-Vag" that attracts all men.
We did enjoy a great time on the lake though. We spent several hours boating around & pulling eachother around on a tube. I also tried wakeboarding for the first time. That didn't work out so well. I couldn't ever stand up & just ened up being dragged face first through the water with a plank strapped to my feet. Oh well, I'll have to try that again soon, after doing a little reading on the subject.
Here's a some pics of us on the tube:

Monday, April 16, 2007 Anniversary Weekend at Caddo Lake
Craig & I celebrated our 12th anniversary this weekend! Actually it's not until the 23rd, but we decided to celebrate with a camping trip on Friday the 13th!
(Man I look high in that pic!)
Craig & I spent our anniversary at our favorite place in Texas, Caddo Lake State Park. It is the only natural lake in Texas. The lake itself is swamp & marshland with miles of sloughs & bayous to explore. We had a great time, even though we had a cold front come in which made it freezing while on the lake. We're going to go back again this summer when it will be hot & a lot of creatures should be scurrying around. The only thing we saw this time was some deer out on an island. We still have yet to see any snakes or alligators, which there are many in the area.
On the Texas State Park website, it lists this info: Activities enjoyed include camping, hiking, swimming, picnicking, nature study, fishing, and boating.
Naturalists can enjoy stately cypress trees, American lotus, and lily pads, waterfowl, alligators, turtles, frogs, snakes, raccoons, minks, nutrias, beavers, squirrels, armadillos, and white-tailed deer.
I don't know about you, but I'm not so sure about swimming anywhere that alligators may be present!
We always rent a boat from Crip's Camp, located in Uncertain, Tx. Uncertain is a tiny town with a population of 150. We spent around 5 or 6 hours exploring the lake & locating a couple geocaches along the way. Geocaching was trickier then normal because everything looks camouflaged with all the spanish moss hanging from the trees. We also briefly got stuck on an underwater beaver dam. But after some paddling & shifting our weight on the boat, we were able to free ourselves & backtrack out of the shallow area...
At the campsite we had a good time playing games & going hiking for a while. On Friday night we had to help out some neighboring campers who had run down their truck battery & were stranded in the rain, We ran back to our truck to help jump them off & also flagged down a forest ranger who assisted us. There was also an old man a couple sites down that had the cutest little dog. The funny thing was that the first time we saw him was when the man stumbled into our site trying to catch his dog, who had gotten away from him. Once he caught him, the man kept getting tangled in the leash & almost fell over. Then for the next 2 days, every time we saw the man he was always either tangled in the leash or running after the dog. This was a little dog, not some huge one that could drag you down the street, but maybe about 10 lbs. I couldn't help but laugh. Now it all made since why it took the man over an hour to back his camper into his site. LOL
Here are some pics from the trip. With the sky being overcast, the pictures came out kind of grey, instead of the usual colorful pics I get when it is sunny. And all the pictures of the 2 of us were either blurry or we looked stupid because we were freezing. LOL
I wore one of my F13 shirts on Friday...
And you can see the hockey mask I hung in the campsite...
And here's a couple of videos I took while out exploring Caddo:
Happy anniversary, Craig!
I love you!

Monday, March 19, 2007 Atlanta State Park
This weekend Craig & I went to Atlanta State Park in Atlanta, Tx. This is in the East Texas Piney Woods on Lake Wright Patman. Atlanta is a small, beautiful park with tall trees & big roomy campsites. They have some great beginner level trails, which was great since we took Xochitl on her first hiking adventure. During our day hike trough the main trails, we found 2 geocaches. I finally got to place my first Travel Bug in one of the caches. It's a pink & yellow diving squid attached to the travel bug tag.
I also found another geocacher's Trout-About travel bug which I'll be placing in another great caching location soon.
Here's a couple pics of the park during the day:
Just before dusk on Saturday we went for another hike on the park's interpretive trail. The terrain was much more fun since it had hills, bridges & creeks all along the winding trail. The park had recently performed a prescribed burn in this area, leaving the ground charred with downed trees lying about. It actually looked kind of creepy with nightfall approaching, making it seem like a haunted forest. By the time we were reaching the end of the trail it was getting pretty dark. About that time we started hearing the strangest noises coming from not too far away. It sounded like some sort of strange monkey-bird-cat creatures howling at us:
Here are some pics of the interpretive trail before it got dark...
We saw a nest of webworms while walking this trail...
A night pic of the camper...
Here's Craig in the puppy playpen...
Xochitl playing in the camper...
We also made this silly F13 video while out on the dusk hike:
During the trip, there was one odd thing that happened. While we were packing up on Sunday, a man, who for the purposes of this blog I've named Zeke, came by walking his chihuahua. Zeke must have been around 60, was very nice, very hick, & had maybe 3 or 4 teeth left in his entire head. He stopped & said hello, then asked if Xochitl is a chihuahua. I explained that she's an Italian Greyhound & told him that I do have a chihuahua that is at home. Zeke introduced me to his dog, tritely named "Taco Bell." He was so cute & friendly as I was petting him. That's when Zeke said "I don't know how to say this, but you must have the taco in you because he usually barks at everybody he meets." I knew what he meant, but was still kind of taken off guard by the statement. I've got the taco in me??? Hmmmm..... You always meet the fanciest characters when camping around Texas.
