Lyndsay and I had Christmas with my family this past weekend. We went to Pigeon Forge, TN, since it is about halfway between us and them. We exchanged gifts...and I got a sweet new camera! It's a Canon SD850 IS...so far, I really like it.
Here's a picture I snapped as we were leaving the Dixie Stampede. Yes, that's right--we embraced the touristy mania of Pigeon Forge with none other than a trip to the Dixie Stampede. Lyndsay wanted to go to Dollywood, but we talked her out of that one.
The stampede itself was good food and good fun. There was one part where these little kids from the audience were supposed to chase some chickens across the dirt floor. Two white chickens, two black. Well..in the middle of the race, the male white chicken decides he can no longer withhold his lustful passion for the female black chicken, and he jumps on her and pins her to the ground. Everyone just kinda stopped and stared there for a few seconds.Then the white chicken decided he was done, jumped to his feet and ran across the finish line, making the black chicken team the losers. Kinda crazy strategy for a chicken, eh?
But back to the topic of Christmas. It was fun, and we good to see the family and get a lot of rest.
Back to work in the morning. Happy New Year!
