I am back home from my epic holiday to Driggs, which included:

Image

Getting a new fancy hat.

Image

The National Rodeo Finals - two and a half hours of thrills and spills, far more exciting than I'd expected.

Image

Huge water slide!

Image

Winning $5.10 on a $2 stake at the Indian casino.

Image

Making friends with Bullet, my BIL's pet rat.

Image

Feeding and guarding llamas.

Image

Many trips to hot springs to soak and - in the case of the ones at Norris - eat pizza and ice cream while soaking.

Image

Shopping! Watchmen Ultimate Edition, MLB 10 The Show, action figures, etc.

Image

Being pretty much snowed in due to massive blizzards.

Image

Many trips to Tony's Pizza.

Image

A chicken fried steak bigger than the plate it was brought in on.

Image

Carrying a flag to cross the road.

Image

Decorating Easter eggs.

Image

Getting a pipe.

All around awesome.

My pics -

My wife's blog post -

(Very similar, but the pics have captions and it's all on one page.)

At least I came home to this -

You look REALLY different without your hat on...

Yeah, the first picture's a couple of days after we got there and the second one's from the night before we left.

That'll explain it.

That chicken steak thingy looks terrifying, frankly. How long did it take you to eat it? And how long after eating it did it take for you to suffer some form of coronary problem?

I shared it with two other people and there was still about half of it left.

Looks like you had a swell old time over there.

Water slides look ACE!

I sent this many postcards: 0.

And brought back this many presents for people: 1. (A can of Mountain Dew for my brother. And I'm not seeing him for ages, so I'll probably end up drinking it myself.)

It's not the type of thing you can take home. Leave it for five minutes and the delicious/disgusting ratio goes all wrong.
