Bottom’s Up!

 

A skier at Vail resort in Colorado was left hanging upside down and pantsless from a chairlift last week. Thought this was too funny. pic4

They boarded the high-speed lift. The chairlift’s fold-down seat was not lowered, which caused the man to fall through the gap. His ski got jammed in the ascending chairlift, and that kept him supended because his boot never dislodged from its binding.

Feel the Noise- Puerto Rico Movie

Britton and I just watched the movie Feel the Noise. I think it is one of Jennifer Lopez’s films and I thought it was pretty good. They had a lot of music, especially reggaeton and hip hop. The parts I liked best were the scenes in Puerto Rico. There were a couple of scenes where they were playing basketball by the Fort -El Moro. We were like, I know exactly where that is…except when we were there a horse was on the court! Truly! See below…

Anyway, I’d recommend the movie. It’s not spectacular or anything, but it’s fun and gives you a feel for Puerto Rico and the connections to New York which they call Nuyorican.

I liked this song because of the coqui frog sounds incorporated into the beat.

Busy Musical Weekend in Northern Colorado

It was a busy four day weekend. First we had our party on Wednesday evening, then we had to clean and recover on January 1st. Then that evening we went out salsa dancing at Suite 152 in Fort Collins. We got there early to go to the lessons, but they weren’t open so we went to Lucky Joes (I think that’s the name of the bar) and had appetizers and peanuts that we got to throw on the floors.

We got a merengue lesson that could be a Larry David moment, I swear. Eets so seemple! There was reggaeton, salsa, hip-hop, techno and merengue played there. We were some of the oldest people there since it was 18+ night. But it was fun. I love to dance, Britton, not so much. We are also planning to take salsa lessons here at the Greeley FunPlex starting tomorrow night to prepare for our trip to Puerto Rico. 

 

Then, Friday night, Shana invited me to temple and then to Island Grill to watch a co-worker’s husband play in a band.
