Ice rinks, rodeos and too much dessert

Wow, today has been a pretty fun day. It was full but fun nonetheless. I was pretty tired when I got home this morning, as I had worked a 36 hour shift(s). I took a few hour nap, and my faithful Shadow rested quietly beside me. I think she was rather glad that I was home again. :-)

The "original" plan for today had been to go skiing at Cataloochee, but the weather was not really cooperating...50 degree weather is not really good for skiing.

Instead, I went ice skating with a couple of friends from work. That was a lot of fun and we decided that we needed to do it more often.

Then we met more friends at Carson's Steakhouse in Anderson. The food there was really good...though Stewart would not recommend getting your steak medium/rare...as it still was mooing. ;-)

Next we headed to the rodeo at Clemson. That was a lot of fun, though I still think I would enjoy participating more than watching. :-D (Sorry, no pictures, as they weren't turning out...)

Afterwards we wanted dessert, so ended up at Ruby Tuesday's in Clemson. Stewart was worried that his dessert wouldn't be large enough, even though it was called "tallcake". However, after they arrived, he decided that it was not only a "tallcake" but a "widecake" as evidenced by Holli's here below.

Stewart had almost no difficulty finishing his off, as shown by his satisfied grin.

That finished off our night, leaving the 2 people with "normal" working hours, somewhat exhausted by the antics of the "night shifters" they were hanging out with. :-) What can I say? as that would be why I am posting this at 0330... :-)

Stewart says, "Sleep is nothing to joke about." He's reading the comments over my shoulder. By the way, we have plans for Saturday lunch if you're available. Will text message you.

Hey, cool now I have another Stewart quote to go on my door. The first one was a real hit. :-)
I left it on the paper table cloth at the valentine's banquet and the next day the chief chef, (say that five time real fast) said that he really liked stewart's quote. Hey, Stewart you are becoming quite famous up here. :-)
