Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth

I am still a little bit too wound up to sleep.  So, it's yet another late night. There seems to be something in me that doesn't allow me to sleep before 1:30am these days!  There's always something keeping me up late... and tonight it was the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth!  And it was truly spectacular.  I think I had the best time today at the Stampede that I have ever had.  I went with my mom, and we had a great time!  Somehow, I think now that I'm older and just don't really care about being cool, I could just really and truly enjoy all the cool things that the Stampede has to offer... and enjoy it all with my mom :)  Or maybe I've just been living in Africa too long, and have been deprived of entertainment for way too long!  I was really quite in awe of so many things at the Stampede today - from the marching bands to the mini-donuts and the acrobats and the horses and the clean bathrooms... all in all, it was an amazing day, and I could have spent a few more hours there!
