Air Victory Museum

The Roomie heard about the Air Victory Museum last summer but this is the first chance we’ve had to see it.

The Summer of Barry continues with this museum.  They had a piece of the 911 site and an exhibit to the tragedy of 911.  It is a part of American History now.  It brought up sorrow but it was an important exhibit.

There were many planes.  Model Planes and some helicopters.

Buddy is a history lover from way, way back.  There were exhibits for Amelia Earhart and the Hindenberg Disaster.

Barry was thinking how cool it would be to fly one of these jets.  Fast and Furious….mach 3 style!

When we left we headed over to Mt. Holly, NJ for some lunch.  Jimmy and Eddie found the food amazing and the beer even more amazing, lol!

Everything is Orange or Beige

Today was a grey day with an orangey hue.

Vinny got to do some painting.  It was grey but not rainy at the moment so he was kind of happy about that.

Melvin mostly gets out in the autumn months but he said that this winter is more like October than January.

Bern is feeling the awesomeness of a day well spent outside and at the Morris Arboretum!

Hangovers and Pictures

A couple of us went to the bi-yearly outdoors fun festival in Hogsmead and hijinks ensued.

I find it interesting that everyone is taken in by those giant Bees…Hello I’m a semi-famous Alligator!

Uh Eddie…I thought we were going to get a cocktail?

Smile boys!

Jimmy…I’ve got a hangover…take the dang picture already!!!

By the time Jimmy got this picture of Eddie he was 1/2 tanked.  The boys all had fun and Albie got to see a giant bee do situps…good times 😉

California Dreamin’ – Then We Came Home

Flying is something that I think only Kick’s got a handle one.  You know cause nuns are always flying.

I'm in cue and ready to board...I have no idea where everyone else is?

Is that our plane Eddie?
Yes Jimmy that is our plane
I thought it would be bigger

Seat Belts Fastened...

Safety Instructions...done...lets drink!

Bye Bye California Dreamin'

California Dreamin’ – Bjorn and Friends Go To the Beach

We wanted to put our feet in the Pacific Ocean so we headed to famous Venice Beach.

Me on Venice Beach

Jimmy, Kick and Eddie take in the sun

Jimmy and Eddie digging the Beach

While we were checking out the Ocean and looking for Yasmine Bleeth from Baywatch we met this guy who looked really familiar to me.  He said he gets that all the time.  His name is Bill from Sandy, Utah.  He and his friends were in California on vacation too.

My new friend Bill. He's a little paranoid about the raging waves.

I thought this aerial shot was kind of cool. Check out the marks of BIGFOOT!

Me on the Strip.

Venice Beach was fun and I got to people watch.  Do you know that not one person noticed my big hairy self there.  For the first time I wasn’t the Troll in the room, lol.

A Norwegian in L.A.

We had a long days travel to get to LA so when we got there we were all ready for some much-needed sleep.

The hotel was nice but Jimmy snores and I don’t like that.  The next morning Kick went to look for Erik Estrata.

He wasn’t around so we went to breakfast.

Later I introduced my new friends to Luke Skywalker.  He’s a huge star…they were in awe.

Hey Hollywood!

Directly across the street from our hotel is a famous cemetery.  Wait until you see who we found….

A Trip To California – First Stop Chicago

We all went to California last week.  And by all I mean The Roomies, Me, Kick, Jimmy and Eddie.  We left the menagerie home and they weren’t happy.  Hey we got them souvenirs.

Heading out-of-town

The guys wanted me to bless the plane. I didn’t have any Holy Water so I used Holy Vodka. What?!? It’s clear!

The trip wasn’t exactly first class for us.  The Roomies had it sweet with their nice comfy seats.

We had a layover in Chicago and their airport is entertaining.  Look it’s the Blues Brothers!!! Dudes!

Ah…My Boys!

I wanted to talk to the pilot but apparently that kind of thing is frowned upon.  Very uncool.

And then we arrived at LAX…

Eddie & Jimmy – Life Styles of Super Heroes – The Other Guys Addition

Green Lantern technically lives on Earth but when he’s on the job he’s on the planet Oa.

Visiting Oa is kind of green tintedish. It's very extraterrestrial.

I went to look for Aquaman but I couldn’t find him.  So I just floated around and stuff.

I'm not exactly sure how I can breath under water so I'm just going to go with it.

I get that Superman likes his privacy but seriously his house is in the middle of nowhere!

The Fortress of Solitude! Yeah...I thought it would be more impressive too.

I decided to branch out of the Super Hero realm so my next installment will be my visit to the Enterprise and what happened when I met Darth Vader for the first time.  Until them.  Good luck and Godspeed!

Eddie & Jimmy Love To Read

The Roomie is reading the second book in the Hunger Games series.  I prefer some of the classics.

Jimmy likes this guy’s work.  Hey to each’s own I say.

I like to drink read a lot.  My preference is always towards mysteries.  Every once in a while I do enjoy a good comedy…you know like a political autobiography.

Tonight I think is reading night.  Well after NCIS of course.  What are you reading?

Eddie & Jimmy: The Hunger Games Edition

So on Saturday we went to the early morning viewing of The Hunger Games.  Everyone has read the book so of course we wanted to see if it lived up to the original.

Eddie turn off your cell phone...

The movie was very good.  Jennifer Lawrence was a great Katniss.

It was a bit rainy but we worked around that and after the movie we went to the OG for some lunch. Jimmy noticed we watched The Hunger Games and we were hungry.  How’s that for coincidence? Oh and Bjorn wanted his picture taken too because apparently he’s the founder of this blog…blah, blah, blah.

I mean I know this guy is famous and stuff but seriously while he was out and about we have been putting up some seriously awesome adventures.  Jimmy said I’m just bitter.  Anyway we went to the OG.

So while we were at the OG we ran into Wonder Woman who is way more famous than Bjorn.  Just sayin’!

Kick was there too.  I’m not sure where she came from but Jimmy said she went to the movies with us.  I for one would think I would notice if a 3″ Nun was tagging along.

Eddie…I told you she was there…check it out…here is our picture!

Yes Jimmy Kick was there.  Anyway…good movie…good food…great company.  Not bad for a rainy Saturday!
