A new adventure

Hello blogger community and readers.
Today is the day I'm leaving for a 2 week vacation camping trip with a good friend of mine.
It's going through many states and I don't travel outside Texas much, so it should be interesting.
Pray for saftey.
I'll be going with his Grandmother and little cousins. I'll tell Y'all about it when I get back.
I'm still working on that video. It's stuck in my parents camera right now.
But I'll hope to have it on here by the time i get back around July 3rd.
See ya.

Ranch Trip!

Hi, y'all.
Hope you didn't miss me too much.
I just got home yesterday from a ranch of our family friends.
We've known them forever, no joke and we went to hang out for a week.

Fisrt morning we got up packed and went to our local pawn shop and bought this:



A Red Fender Squire Strat. Except mine doesn't have the crazy whammy bar.
and got a crate amp. all for just $142 bucks, which is an awsome deal!
I'm quite happy with it.
So when we finished the 3 hour drive, we FINALLY got to "The Ranch". we unpacked and me and my 2nd Joel "brother" played it it sounded awsome! Especially when my "Guitar Guru" plays it.
So anyway we had an awsome week we shot some turtles and grasshoppers (bb gun), played apples to apples and last say. we watched some sattellite tv (which we don't have) and watched cash cab and mythbusters. We made a song which I might try to post later. We made a scare crow which everyone wanted to name Dr. Phil or Dr. crane but we never decided on a name.
We helped put up some wood posts in their garden to keep their dog "Butch" in, and made some barriers to keep him away from the plants.
Thursday we woke up early (about 7 or 8) and went to a blueberry farm.
They had tons of blueberrys! We picked, and ate great numbers of them.
I had never done it before so it was a whole new experience for me.
The couple who lived there were very nice and the man who worked there told us some war storys about World war II.
Here is a picture of some berrys.



The last day we went on a drive in the woods and to their lake. We didn't do any fishing but we got to see all of God's great creation.


We saw: 2 armadillos, 2 doe, and a racoon. we didn't shoot any, but Joel really wanted to


It was really fun hope you don't hate me for going on and on.

Memorial Day

Happy memorial day!
I had a good time today. We went to my great grandma's house today.
We took our fishing poles and bb guns. I shot a buch of cacti and 2 birds!
Everyone said I was a bird killer, but it was only 2. My brother also shot a couple bugs.
Then the whole family went to pick apricots off of my great grandma's tree.
We ate them right off the tree!
Then I went fishing for a little while but had no luck.
It was a great day, hope yours was awsome too.

A Helping Hand, RYFO

Getting involved, it's what I was told to do when I signed up.

Are you a RYFO heart? from Ryfo Network on Vimeo.



This is a pretty cool "program" you could say. It helps band members get food, supplies, or just a place to stay at night for free.
Basiciclly when you go to a show you can bring a care package, which has things they need. Equipment usually, but you can send whatever you want to help. They have things in particular they ask, but anything will do.

I signed up, and hope I can help.
I don't go to much shows (yet), but I might be able to help other ways.

I encourage anyone to join if you can. It's a great cause.

Out with the barrowed in with the used.

Well I've been barrowing a Yamaha guitar from someone from church. It's what got me my "start" into playing the guitar, I thank him for letting me use it for so long.

Now onto the new.
Today I bought a new Burswood guitar at the local pawn shop, (that's why it's used).
But it seems pretty cool.



I'll have to get used to it but that shouldn't be too long I hope.
I'm getting a new electric and amp from my friend Joel's friend for about a $100.
Can't wait till I have that one too.

Car show

Yesterday morning me, my dad, and my little brother went to an awsome car show at the church behind our house. It was so rad! there were all kind's of cars and trucks to make the "car enthusiast" go nuts!

We had losts of fun and I got some photo's of ALL the cars, but I'll just show you some of my favorite.



Classic ford muscle.







One of the trucks.



Love the classic wooden truck beds.



This car had some wicked pinstripes.



This car wasn't even old, but probablly one of the craziest one's there!



It even had a Playstation 2!

I saved probablly my favorite for last.



This car had a loud engine, neon flashing lights in the engine bay, and a gorilla in the back seat, how awsome is that!!

All in all it was a great morning.

A step into the blogger world.

This is my first post, and I'm excited to be here.
I've known many bloggers, read, and checked others constantly. It seemed fun, so I thought I'd give it a go. I've always wanted to make one, but thought I was too busy till now.

I hope you get SOMETHING out of my blog, and I hope it won't bore you to death.

Thank you for reading, and will be having many more posts in the future.
