A Standing Ovation

The day was wonderful. My brother Rob, married his beautiful bride, Sharie on Saturday. The entire event was fun filled, and at times, off the chart.
The ceremony took place at the Jefferson Beach Marina.

Immediately following the ceremony, we boarded the Ovation, and headed out into Lake St Clair and down the Detroit River.

We toasted and danced the night away. There were flip flops in case your feet got tired and top notch food throughout the entire night. Celebrities spotted that night included; the Marlborough Man, Blondie, Dutch Boy, several Pro Hockey players and a few Nobel Statesmen. Private photographers were suggested to leave the photographs to the professionals.

After slipping into the galley for some private time away from the paparazzi, Rob's only comment as to how the evening was going was, "YUM".

Buddy's Pizza Detroit's #1 pie

During dinner, with some good friends last night, conversation turned into a discussion as to what pizza was the best in Detroit. Truth be told, it's Buddy's Pizza. So we went for Pizza at Buddy's       http://www.buddyspizza.com/aboutbuddys.html

During our brief wait at the bar, in Grosse Pointe, I had the opportunity to meet Penny. If you are ever there and see an old lady at the end of the bar, stop and say hello. Don't let her fool ya, she's a REAL fire cracker.

Jet's Pizza.........worth the trip

This Thursday, I got a hankering for some good pizza, so I hopped on a plane and flew into Detroit Michigan for some Jet's Pizza . Some of the best pizza out there.  It's all about the corners!

2000 Miles from Graceland

Yep, it's Cowboy Elvis. I had a chance to party with "The King" himself. Right here is a crazy moment of who spotted who. This is Elvis taking a picture of me taking a picture of him. I was lost for words, all I could muster was, "thank you, thank you very much."

4 H Ranch Rodeo

Thursday was the ranch rodeo portion of the 4 H fair. When you watch the ranch hands roping, riding and handling livestock, you begin to have a real appreciation for the guys that rodeo for a living. Good is good, but great, is a thing of beauty to watch. The real art come in the fact that they make it all look so easy. The ranch hand teams competed to trailer cattle, brand calves, doctor sick cows and milk wild cows. All in a days work and surrounded by so much history. Yup, that's what they did before there was television!
