Today was the Rock show. It was 3.5 hours away according to Mapquest, which proved to be pretty much correct on the way to the show. We pulled in just before lunch and chose to walk around instead of stopping somewhere for a decent lunch.
The food they served at the show was pretty much on par with what you would expect. Hamburgers, Hot dogs, Pizza and Chicken tenders. Salads were available but with the other fair offered it was most likely ice burg lettuce. I hate that you can't find a healthy meal at these things. Most of the time we don't do lunch at the shows because they are not that far away. Next time (if their is one) we will pack a lunch and eat better.
We both made purchases at the show. This is a VERY rare occurrence. Having rocks in the house is annoying to me but sometimes the have other interesting stuff. Pat of course purchased some minerals for his collection. His collection is growing pretty fast despite the fact that I encourage him to go through it and sell any duplicates or not so nice minerals. it's a good thing I'm not holding my breath!
The way home was disastrous. Right off the bat we missed a highway exit and (luckily) found another way to go. This added a few miles to an already LONG trip. The worst mistake driving home was missing the THRUWAY. yes you read that correct we missed the thruway. Apparently the ramp we needed was closed, this was not why we missed the exit mind you. We missed any signs that were up advertising it. We had no idea that it had been missed for a good 10 miles. On the way back Pat pointed out the numerous large signs letting us know the through way was coming up. He is convinced that the signs were not there going the other way.
We were talking so I could see missing one or two but their were allot and missing all of them is pretty hard to believe, still I think we must have missed at least one. It is a major road to not have at least 1-2 signs. By the time we made it home I was exhausted and after a yummy (and fairly healthy) dinner I went to bed fairly early.
About Me
- Purduerose
- My name is Sarah. Welcome to my life. I have a bad memory and will enjoy reading this as time goes on, maybe you will too. I plan to write hair-brained opinions and observations , occasionally bash my husband of 4 years (he deserves it!), bash myself (decidedly less often), and otherwise amuse and embarass myself on the internet. Oh and I’ll kiss up to my husband occasionally just to throw him off. Feel free to comment on anything other then spelling and grammar, as I am beyond hope in those area's (so says My evil brother in law).
