Stampede weekend #1

What a weekend! The Stampede officially started on Friday, and so far I've been able to avoid any association with it. Other than the Parade (which no one can avoid) and the fireworks which we still get a great view of - until they build yet another condo tower to block out our view. That will definitely be the sign to move!

Friday night fireworks
We celebrated that fact in grand style and another kickass soiree chez Skybar on Saturday night. No party at Skybar's would be complete without a ridiculous amount of great food - which everyone certainly took over the top, right Doug! This picture is priceless! Doesn't he look like a nine-year-old kid in heaven? Some of the following pics were taken by Jerome...

Funniest. Picture. Ever. Wing madness!

Evidence of the carnage
It was so great to see everyone again - all those I haven't seen in a long time - Shawn and Jeanette, Maroshka and Rachel, Debbie and Debbie, Derek, Elle, and Jetboy.

Dance bitches!

Studs

What?

Wall of contemplation
We drove up to Skybar's place with BK, Nick, Jerome, and Joe.

Another pose?

The three best things in the world...Joe, Juicy Fruit weed, and the Jesus Action Figure with REAL GLIDING ACTION!

Earth Blends Raid...do I smell toxic irony? (this was funny at the time)

What time is it?

No one is drunk.
No surprise, Curtis and I were the last ones standing. For some reason we figured we could hail a cab or two at 4am on Saturday night during Stampede. Needless to say, there were many bodies all over the house when Jeff got up in the morning. What a great party! Stay tuned for Stampede weekend #2....
