Home safe and sound after a wonderful week visiting my son and his bride; plus watching as much football as we could in one week. Went on another ride along with Nick (He is a cop) . This was my third ride along and the second time we had a dead body. Nick was calling me the angel of death. Seeing someone dead is never the highlight of my trip but it is interesting to see how the situation is handled.

I did enjoy the Chargers beating the Broncos last week and the seats were the best I have had for any sporting event. We were 14 rows from the field and it was fantastic, the fact that the charges won buy the score of 32 to 3 help a lot.

The Thanksgiving dinner was wonderful and we laughed during the whole meal. My son did the majority of the cooking and is a wonderful cook. The only down side to the trip was having to put down one of Nick’s dogs. It was hard but had to be done. I was able to help share the grief and was glad I was there for my boy and his wife.

I am headed off for Denver in the morning. My youngest son and I will be attending the Chargers vs Broncos game; we will be decked out in our finest San Diego yelling at the top of our lung. I can not wait. I will stay through Thanksgiving and return home the following Saturday. The bride and mom will come out to Denver Tuesday before Thanksgiving should be a good time.

Safety tip.. Do NOT vacuum around the fireplace when you have a fire going. I took the vacuum extension and was cleaning off the hearth, when I was done I could smell something really bad. None of the dogs were around so I could not blame them. With my keen eye I noticed a large amount of smoke coming out of the vacuum. I figure this was not good and I carried it outside opened it up and the vacuum bag was smoldering away. I pulled the bag out and tossed it into the snow. All was good on the home front. I explained what happened to the bride and she still wants me to vacuum, I can’t seem to catch a break.

The brides sister is in town and the girls have been on the go every since her plane touched down. They seem to be having a wonderful time. I have no idea how much this is going to cost, but I would bet it going to be a lot.

The Internet has been going on about Obama plans to sign a world treaty end privet ownership of guns. Even if he signs this piece of crap I doubt it could be ratified by the congress. If they do ratify I would bet it would get real ugly over here.

Not much going on in my life. I did take mom for a pedicure, and manicure today. She loves being pampered.
