candy cannon of good times

I went to the 311 / Offspring concert. It was a magical cracked out evening of fun with Julie. Started at Olive Garden with interesting conversations. The family next to us asked like 3 times what I was eating. Who knew cheese ravioli was such an interesting dish. Part of the converstation was the upcoming family reunion. I proceded to ask Julie " Is your dad doing the candy cannon?" I got a "probably not." I considered boycottying and getting a whole new family. Candy raining from the heavens of Centerville is a joyious event loved by many. As the concert came we had to drive to Usana. I still don't get the traffic and why it all of a sudden got better after Bangeter highway. Nothing like a beer and air guitar and a game of "your team" to make a concert complete. So on to the family reunion. As long as I can remember the reunion is on the 24th of July. I don't know what that makes me giggle but it does. It seems so Utahn. The reunion is great to see aunts, uncles, and cousins. Some I saw just a few weeks ago the others I only get to see once a year. There are about 5 coolers of beer. Its goooooood times. Gail finally brought out the candy cannon. Okay Gail is one of those guys who can actually build stuff. He made a little pipe thing, not a pipe bomb, and it shoots candy into the sky. I don't know how it works or why it works. I love candy flying at high volocities. Amen

  1. I love, and I mean LOVE that your two recent posts include me. I can't wait for "your team" to catch on even more and I'm planning on sending some text pics of your team. I'm thinking concerts and Olive Garden need to be our thing, and our thing needs to happen a lot more. So, what are you eating? That looks good.
