Branson, MO with family

We got to go home for a few days and took the family to Branson. Had a great time. The grand kids are really fun to spend time with. As well as my son and daughter-in-law.

MMA Bout in Pocahontas, AR

We don't get to be home much so when we are we try to squeeze as much in as possible. We got home on Friday night and my son, Bobby, told me he was going to an MMA training in Pocahontas, and asked me to tag along.

Cool, I smelled a photo opp.

Well we were both surprised. Upon arriving we found out they were actually going to be having regular bouts of sorts. Three, 3 minute rounds in your weight class, they said. Ohh boy.

Well, Bobby had been doing this a grand total of 2 days, so I was a little concerned. This wasn't like watching basketball or little league baseball. These boys were trying to hurt each other.

Anyway, Bobby fought and won. The fight was called early in the 3rd round due to knock down. He was pretty sore, but learned a lot. And I got some great pics and video. Check out the YouTube video below as well.

Toledo Squirrel

When visiting the Toledo Museum of Arts and the Toledo Glass Pavilion we were greeted out front by a friendly squirrel. He ran from tree to tree and stopped to pose on several occasions.

This was my favorite.
