Dixonstock

 THE BLOG

I just realized that I had only posted about work but somewhere over the past month or so I have actually managed to take at least one break.  The Dixon's farm is a staple for Memorial Day fun and also the site in which a few beverages are "partook" (responsibly of course).

Some time honored traditions of games were practiced

 

and this year we went down to the river to hit up the rope swing... or in my case recover in the cool water...

As always it was a great weekend and also served as the last time we will see Bob for a little bit.  He flew off to Peru the day after the weekend.  With any luck I will be seeing him there in a month.

Amy the Outlaw

Guns are illegal in England, but permitted in the US so we took Amy out for some shooting. She is a natural.

Here is a vid of the rounds.

Memorial Day at the Dixon's Farm

For the weekend Me and Bob headed up to the Dixon's farm for a little camping... (Apparently I go camping a lot). This is the campsite.

We even brought Hector along to enjoy.

Before going fishing I secured some line to my new-fangled-fishing-pole (AKA my guitar)

I think I was play Tangerine by Led Zepplin when this monster attacked.

Bob caught a fish as well... he has been lonely lately.

It is fun watching a one armed man trying to eat really tough steak

Hector was constantly the center of attention. Bob even used him to meet some ladies.

Then we gimps got our mothers to play a little bit of horshoes with us.



Team Collins 1 - Team Shaw 0



When it was time to pass out I recalled my victory.

The next morning we had breakfast. The Dixons had a special canopied one.

These Dixons just relaxed

I then followed suite.

Well it looks like it might be another day or two until I go camping again. All-in-all a good weekend and with any luck by next weekend I will be walking on both legs.
