Memorial Day 2022!

 

I hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day weekend!  I enjoyed the extra day off and in a blink its over with!

Friday night we kicked off the weekend with the premiere of the new Top Gun Maverick movie:
If you haven't seen it yet...GO!
Now I grew up with this movie, I know every line to the original and I have an extremely high regard for the Navy/Air Force, etc.
There was no better way to kick off this American weekend!

During the movie, the Blues were playing game 6 against the Colorado Avalanche.  Had we not been at the movie, we would have been there and I'm glad we weren't because the Blues lost with the last 5 seconds left.  It was a good run.
I am not cheering for Colorado to continue on.
Kick their butts Edmonton, knock out Leddy as a tribute to him knocking out Binnington.

Saturday we trekked up to Hannibal for the Twain on Main Festival.
I had been wanting to go forever and we had never been free until this year.
We had a blast!

 

The other festival I want to go to is the Mark Twain Days, it falls on July 4th this year and we are not in town so maybe next year!

~*~

The rest of the weekend was low key!

Bike ride & bbq at my Dad's on Sunday.
Burn SAC test ran on Monday then just a lot of yardwork and catching up on stuff around the house.

I just can't believe its going to be June tomorrow!
