Another mind blowing week with my sister Suzy in L.A. We went to the last two shows EVER of Slayer, two nights of King Diamond, AND the Stadium Tour press conference with Motley Crue, Poison, and Def Leppard. I met so many amazing wonderful people and pretty much all of my musical heroes since I was a kid. This was probably the BEST week ever in my 43 years.
FUCKIN SLAYER!!!!!!

After settling in on our last night on the road, Lady Fred and I reminisce of our Memorial Weekend adventure with Flash and Trinket. From racing trains on Route 66 to out running tornadoes on our way home, we had one of the best times on our long weekend getaway to the Springfield Mile. Travel is not about the destination.....its about the people you meet along the way.

Our last day in Cuba was the best! It started with a two hour car ride through the countryside to Vinales where we stopped at a look out in the mountains to take in the beautiful scenery. We then drove to a privately owned tobacco farm where we got to ride horses through the tobacco fields and learned a lot about the tobacco plants, the sugar canes, rum, and the coffee beans. After trying some of the local rum and cigars, we then drove to Indian Cave and took a short boat ride before stopping for lunch at an awesome little restaurant down the rode. Tracy and I had the best time seeing the countryside, learning some agriculture, meeting some more wonderful people, and making some new friends. I most definitely will visit this beautiful country again!!!

My friend Tracy and I flew to Havana Cuba for a week of fun and adventure. Both being virgin world travelers, we were amazed by everything we saw and started to fall in love with Havana. Day 1 consisted of being picked up from the airport in a red '59 Pontiac, exploring the city, and eating our first delicious Cuban meal before settling into our casa by the ocean. Then exploring the neighborhood, meeting the people, and ending with a nightcap and a cigar or two.

My Mom and I flew out to Billings, MT on Tuesday August 14th and rented a car for a week to go explore the Great Out West. We visited the Battle of Little Big Horn on the first day and ended up in Buffalo, WY by the second night just missing Longmire Days which was the previous weekend. We then drove through the beautiful country side into Cody, WY by the third day and took in a rodeo of coarse. Our fourth day landed us in Jackson Hole, WY after driving through half of beautiful Yellowstone and Grand Tetons National Parks. We ended up crashing out there for a couple nights as Mom came down with pneumonia. After she stared to feel a little better, we continued on back north through the Tetons and Yellowstone checking out Old Faithful and running with the buffalo. We then had a close call as we coasted down Bear Tooth Pass in the dark and almost on fumes but found gas and a nice hotel in Red Lodge, MT for our sixth night on the road. Then as our vacation time wound down, we headed back to Billings to catch a flight home on the 21st. We fell in love with the Rocky Mountains and the romance of all the rich history of the land. We met some wonderful people and had amazing mother/daughter bonding time. I feel so lucky to share this experience with my mom.....pneumonia and all.
