- This weekend was such a blast!! We watched X-Men 3: The Last Stand and Grandma's Boy...both were good movies.
Sunday, we went to Lake Mead for the Offshore Super Series on Lake Mead. 33 of the world's fastest boats were there for the annual national championship races.
All of the boats were being prepared to hit the waters so Johnny and I took the opportunity to check them out. The first boat we stopped by was Fury. The crew were very nice, they instantly said good morning and started chatting with us. We asked to take a picture and the lady who was had been working on top of the boat jumped down and asked if we wanted her to take our picture.
"Are you the driver?", Johnny asked. I think she was surprised but Johnny's pretty intuitive with these things.
"Well yes I am." She said and we told her we'd be looking out for her. She later went on to win 1st in her class of boats!
Watching the boats get lifted off their trailor and into the water was the neatest thing! Wouldn't it be nice if they did that for us instead of me fishtailing the truck and trailor down the water!
The rest of the afternoon was just great. Johnny's dad later joined us and he brought extra beer...LOL!! It was such a rush watching the boats zoom by closely followed by helicopters above. I can't wait to see the pictures they took because not only were there cameras in the air but on the ground too.
Take a look at our pictures:

Before we head home, Johnny had to take pictures of this Ford GT. Apparently these cars are very rare and one happened to be where we were.
