2012/06/29 – Friday - Vacation – Day 8 – Dance Halftime

Mom D was not feeling good so she would stay behind for the first part of the day.

We got to the Bid session just at the very beginning.  Two places are bidding for 2016.  Des Moines, Iowa and Amarillo, Texas.  We liked Des Moines better  between the two presentation.

We watched the competition a little bit and we talked a lot.

Eric went with some friends for lunch while the rest of us went to the Onion for lunch.

We watched the California and the Colorado exhibition groups.

We then got invited to do a demonstration at an arena football game during the halftime show.

So a quick trip back to the RV to get ready and to pick up Mom D.  We made it back to the convention center in time to join the group heading to the game.

We watch the first and most of the second quarters before we had to be back down to the field.  There was 6 squares dancing to Hunter Keller (which he was WAY UP in the announcer booth), but we only got to dance to one song.  The field is really weird to dance on, it was very spongy.  Most of the group went back to the convention center while the rest continue to watch the remainder of the game.  Arizona 61 at Spokane 35

 Back at the convention center, we went and got the van and drove back to the RV.  Once back at the RV park, the place where I should be able to park the van was being taken by somebody else.

Amanda and I went over to the Flying J's to get some dog food and some milk.
