Hey everyone! Sorry I have not posted in a couple weeks. I wanted too but a lot of stuff has come up.
Last weekend I went up north to visit my brother and his wife for Easter. My wife, my parents and I all drove up together and we had a great time. I did myself a favor and did not bring my computer with me so I would not be distracted by video games or social media. I wanted to have quality family time. And I did. We watched that unbelievable basketball game between UCLA and Gonzaga. That final point at the end in overtime was legendary. Some people said it was a "robbery" but if you ask me, as someone who doesn't really have a genuine interest in basketball, it was by far the best game I had ever watched in my life. Back and forth. Had you on the edge of your seat till the very end. Loved it.
On the same day earlier that afternoon My wife, my dad and I all went fishing. We didn't catch anything, but my wife harvested some mussels for us to cook. Later that weekend when we returned home she had me try a broth with mussels in it, and it was...delightful. So good.
So some things I learned about mussels. They are okay to eat and harvest if they are not living near sewage areas. Because when you cook them, the poison from the pollution does not wash away in the cooking process. So if you harvest mussels and you want to eat them, make sure they are in clean areas.
Anyways, going back to Easter weekend. On Easter itself, it was relatively simple. We woke up, we searched for Easter baskets, then we had a Easter brunch. We also discussed where we are going for Christmas this year hopefully. We all decided on Hawaii.
I love Hawaii. It's on of my favorite places on earth. Beautiful beaches, warm, good food, good people. I hope we get to go back.
In other news, I am three days in to my second vaccine for Covid. And I have not experienced any side effects. Which is very relieving because I heard tons of stories from friends saying people had experienced side effects. The vaccine I got was Phizer. Which I heard is a higher grade vaccine. Getting the vaccine we very easy. I arrived early, I walked in, they gave me the shot, I sat for 15 minutes and I walked out.
A couple weeks ago I went horseback riding with my wife and some family members of hers as a wedding present. My horse's name was Big Dunn or as the people on the ranch called him "Big D" which I thought was awesome. He was a great horse. I loved riding him. Last horse I rode from several years back was "Gypsy" She was a great horse too. Its always fun riding horses.
That about sums up what has happened over the past 2-3 weeks that I haven't posted. I will end by giving you guys the last two Fun Fridays Songs, and...tomorrow's upcoming Fun Friday song. So you guys get 3 songs today! Enjoy!
Sincerely,
Austin
