NYC - DAY 1

Flew into New York Thursday morning and hit the ground running. After dropping my bags off at the W, I spent the afternoon wandering around the MoMA followed by dinner with Trish and Carissa at Red Eye Grill.

State Fair at Night

Fried Beer, as awful as it sounds

The State Fair of Texas

Howdy, Folks! Ok, so this is definitely not outside the loop but I got some great pictures and just had to share.

Ennis, Texas

So technically I wasn't too far outside of the loop last weekend when I ventured down to Ennis, Texas, but I was still outside. I headed down to good ol' Ennis (pop. 16,000) to visit the Texas Motorplex and check out the NHRA O'Reilly Fall Nationals. Yep, that would be the National Hot Rod Association. The passes came from an Army friend who travels with the Army car team. With cars hitting speeds in the 300s, it was a little hard to capture the action but here are a few pics.

Savannah Trip

Last weekend I went to Savannah to visit Helen and Sean. Kim flew in as well and we had a great weekend. We strolled around the squares downtown, visited Hilton Head, SC, boated around the intercoastals, lunched on Tybee Island and checked out the kick-off to Savannah Jazz Fest.

Tubing the Guadalupe

Headed down to New Braunfels last weekend for Nikki's Bachelorette. It was my first tubing trip and will definitely not be my last. Too fun!
