First of I have to congratulate my women’s hockey team for winning the first season of the St. Louis Women’s Hockey League. The Mid-Ice Crisis capped off a 8-0 season with a 5-1 win in the championship game last night. Clearly they didn’t miss me whatsoever… I was pretty proud and excited for them and was wishing I could have been there to enjoy the celebration with them.
I did get to be there in a way because I got up super early and Facetimed in during the parking lot festivities. It was really cool ‘virtually’ being there. Not quite the same, but better than nothing.
After leaving the group I proceeded to sleep and laze in bed until…oh, around 1pm?? I didn’t evenmuster
matter the energy to go float in the sea. L.A.Z.Y. I was able to lure a few to join me though. I finally got up and went straight to get my favorite treat.
Then it was Crazy 8’s with Kyle and Jess.
Tonight happened to be the night of the full moon. The last few nights it looked full, but Jess kept saying it wasn’t. Tonight the ‘pizza place’ had a celebration with ‘special music’ and free desserts and fireworks. I haven’t been there for dinner yet this trip so we decided to go. Jess said: “I told you sons of bitches it wasn’t full the other night.” ๐ณ
Dad was not impressed whatsoever with the rising of the moon. The big deal is that you can watch it rise quite quickly out from behind the mountain. Dad said when they were younger they were always ticked when it was a full moon because the fish didn’t bite and it mucked up their haul.
I stepped away from the table to get some shots of the moon rising. It happens quite quickly and when it was up, all the patrons clapped and all I could hear was a big sarcastic: “Wow” from my dad.
Fireworks followed…
Post dinner we went on a little stroll and came across a full on pig roast. The guy gave me a sample and it was delicious.
Les and his mom and brother decided to take a little horse carriage ride.
