Man, I’m gonna start calling you Steve “Danger” D.! Our weekend getaway to Deep Creek was absolutely awesome. Tucked away in the mountains of Western Maryland, Deep Creek is a great winter getaway for anyone who needs a break. I would have more pictures but we spent the entire weekend in the hot tub!! (I’m sold, we are getting one…)
And Steve, I’m gonna start calling you Steve “Danger” D…
Taking the Lead…
by Rico on Dec.16, 2008, under Friends, Fun, Music, Updates, Vacation

Through the years one thing I’ve always loved doing is singing out in front of crowds. In the military, it was going out with Branson, Rannell, Paul… with DJ Ray Ray spinning at “Rocker’s”!! By the way, Ray Ray is in San Antonio at his bar called “Tequila Del Rey”. Look him up! These days it’s been from runnin’ with Ole Russ to Doin’ the Dux rocker style with Jimmy. As of late, the number is singing the RockIt with J.B. and, if we are lucky, Nina Bina whose gorgeous voice never fails at turning heads! Literally! Oh, the adventures we crazy kids get into at THAT place!!
I was asked and accepted the frontman honors for a local funk-rock band called “Knee Deep”! (And for you mom, a frontman is the band’s lead vocalist! I love you!) We are practicing now. I don’t want to say too much now, but I’ll say we will be gigging in about a month!
I will also say that if I have to sing in front of another cruise ship, I am gonna freak!! just kidding. James Brown is a fun part to play, twice…
The Honeymoon Xtravaganza!!

We are home from our weeklong Honeymoon/Vacation/Party Fest trip!! Easily the best vacation I have ever been on and the best part is that my “Jules” was right beside me to partake in the fun. Jim and Terri, two of my favorite people in the world, were also on the trip and it would not have been the same without them there. Julie’s parents, Don and Kathy, also met us there as well as Mary and Jim. So the 8 of us took the Carnival Valor OVER!! If you must know, Yes, I did do the James Brown part in the Carnival Legends show! But, this time I was feelin’ good because my best man, Jim L., did the Finale role in singing Frank Sinatra’s “My Way”!! (There is a DVD!) As customary for this sort of thing, here are the pictures!! 480+ pics of places I’d rather us all be than here screwing around on computers! I love my Digital SLR!!!
