Cheryl and I were lucky enough to be able to get away for the Memorial Day Weekend. While it was a requested stay by Aunt Pam to watch the dogs while she and Uncle Jim went away, Cheryl and I thought it was wonderful.

We were able to get out of town at no cost to us and relax and do whatever we wanted. The first thing we noticed was that VHI Classic was doing an A to Z countdown of 80′s videos. We saw some great videos; some of which we haven’t seen since the 80′s, and had a wonderful time discussing memories we have from our youth that correspond with the videos or artists and once again drooling over some of our favorites.
When we were able to tear ourselves away from the videos we watched a few movies:
Avatar, which was so incredibly awesome and better than either of us had expected. In fact, neither of us had actually wanted to see the movie. It turns out that we would have missed an excellent storyline, spectacular acting and a phenomenal movie over all.
Sex in the City, the original, which was okay. I had seen it and Cheryl wasn’t a great fan but we thought what the heck. Neither of us care for Big so it was no Woo Hoo to us. Overall we thought it was mediocre.
Taken, which was very powerful and moving. Liam Neeson is, of course, extremely good looking to both of us and the fact that he pretty much carried the movie was amazing. There were very few scenes that he was not in.
Then on Monday, Mom and Dad came to get us and surprised us by taking us the the new Wild Horse Pass Casino. It was wonderful to play at a new location and try new slots. All in all, we had a terrific weekend and are looking forward to more like this.
