Hi! I went through some pictures from Vacation and Ozzfest. Well, I was too busy having fun on vacation that I didn’t really take a lot of pictures. But here they are!

Then the next weekend, Aug 14th, I got to check out Ozzfest at Alpine Valley, was a great show, all day, about 13 hours worth, and lots of photos. I was lucky enough to have a media pass, and probably took over 300 pictures. About 100 or so are good enough for the website, so check those out here:

I’m in the middle of a softball tournament now, our first game was at 9:30 and we played 2 in a row and won. I’m playing with a couple guys from my Tuesday team. By the way, our Tuesday team won our division championship against our heated rival team to bring home the Trophy! Go to the Nitty Gritty in Middleton to check it out… It’s the only trophy there! Yay us!
We play again today at 3. 
Vacation was great! We had a really good time! Got back a week ago Saturday, and had to whip right into the work week on Monday. Went and saw a few concerts in the last week… including Ozzfest last Saturday (14th) I was hooked up pretty good with media credentials, so I took a LOT of great pictures. I’ll post again when I have them online. I also have a few from Vacation. I was too busy having fun and being part of the action to stop and take pictures… oh well!
After a really busy week at work, I am on vacation all week!
I picked up Tim on Sunday and drove north! We met my Dad and Lisa at a cottage near Boulder Junction, WI. (About 5 miles from the U.P.) We got settled in yesterday, and today the motor arrived for the boat. Last night we stuck the pole in the water off of the pier for a little bit and Tim caught his first fish! It was a little bluegill, and later on, he got a bigger fish… a Perch! I think I caught the same when I was little too.
Today we went out in the boat and were pulling fish out of the lake left and right. At one point, all three of us (Dad, Me, Tim) had fish on our hooks! Granted, none were trophy fish, but enough to make dinner for the 4 of us! I got some sunburn too. Later on, after dinner, it was campfire time and some real S’mores! I golf with my dad tomorrow, Wednesday, my uncle from Green Bay is stopping over, and at some point we’ll find some places to swim!
Last week, we won our softball game on Tuesday, we were rained out on Thursday. But I went to Lisa’s house, as she planned a suprise party for her daughter Maddie’s 18th b-day party. Her and her dad got a reggae band to play in their yard! It was pretty cool.
Friday night, it was time for some Milwaukee Metalfest action. This thing gets worse and worse every year. A few bands were great, especially Watch Them Die and Death Angel. Yup, some nice family friendly band names! haha Anyways, after running behind all night, then cutting off bands all night, they still cut the main band off at the end of the evening. AND… the cops came in the middle of the fest and evacuated, because they said there was a small fire upstairs. NICE. There was no danger, and everyone was let back in. Sheesh.
Saturday, I had originally planned on the Metalfest, but it was looking so weak earlier in the week, and especially after the Friday debacle, I let it go, and spent most of the day packing up, then helping a friend move, and then… seeing Mirror Black at the Badger Bowl. Then on Sunday…yeah, vacation started! hehe
I’ll have some Vacation pix up when I get home!
