Iphone photo dump

And away we go…

2011-11-SkeletonFishing

A few weeks back we had a weekend without sports; I drove Matthew and Kevin down to Cedar Point for the day.  The park is all ready for Halloween with haunted houses everywhere….given Matthew’s obsession with fishing, I snapped a picture of this skeleton

In line for Magnum. It was really really windy, and many of the best rides were shut down.

Leaving the station.  Because the big rides were shut down, the lines for every other ride were crazy long (Kevin waited for 3(!) hours to ride Millennium Force).  We had a lot of fun going through the haunted portions of the park (still some very long lines..).  Matthew was in the middle holding Kevin and my hands; the ghouls would rush up and scare him at times.

I’ve never NEVER seen a buck in the backyard.  This is first ever, and he’s quite a guy…..many of my hunting friends looked at his rack and were very jealous.  Happily, for him, he lives in an area where he’s safe from hunters…..

Another group of deer crossing through the backyard.  There are more of these pictures on the Iphone for later posting….sitting in the backyard I see a lot of them at this time of the year.

Matthew and his buddy Henry enjoying the Michigan State hockey game; they were invited by another soccer player’s family to sit in the luxury box.

Went to game five of the American League Championship Series; saw Detroit beat Texas in a great game with two guys from work.  One of them left this hat in the back of my car; Matthew put it on and said, “Dad, where did you get this hat?”. 

Had to text my buddy with the picture and tell him “quit corrupting my kids” (the irony of this statement given the last week is not lost on me).
