2025 Mexican Fiesta “The Prize Tent”

Ohhh wow was our Mexican Fiesta experience different this year!

The four of us volunteered to work the prize tent, and 'sell' the tchotchkes to the kids who brought their tokens in from the games they played.

Oh sweet baby Jesus it was chaos. A never ending barrage of kids. I want this, I want that. Kids trying to sneak off with prizes. Whining about how many tokens they needed. Not being able to make up their minds. 

I think our shift was only an hour and 45. Twenty minutes into it, I looked at Evey and said, "that was only 20 minutes!" 

At the end of the day, we all survived. But I now have beef with about three different 10-year-olds.

So long, Sportsman!

It was a fun two months with a Polaris Sportsman 570. They lent it to me on condition that I'd include it in a few of my work videos. I also did a review of it — both Evey and Bub did camera work for me. We'll post that in a week or two. 

Fun experiment! Got to see some of the land around our house, that's for sure!
