Jason Bourne

Aug2

If you are in the theater for this rendition of the Bourne films, you are probably here for the action. That is the one thing that this movie delivers well. There are fist fights, motorcycle escapes, car chases, gun play, and more fights. Bourne and the CIA team trying to catch him do some impossible things, probably to the detriment of the storyline. The camera work is what we have come to expect from the series – crazy fast moving. I would prefer a script where Jason Bourne is trying to do some good in the world instead of a retread of him versus the CIA goons out to get him.

That was nice!

Dead End

Sometimes a dead end can be a beautiful place to find growth, change, and to take the time to make a necessary u-turn.

Swimming Laps

My weekends have been pretty boring lately. I am doing my best to get to the gym more often. Gotta swim, because it seems to be the best exercise for me now. This is the view I was treated to on my way out of 24 Hour Fitness this evening. It was a treat to have a nice sunset like this.

Heat

It was 95 degrees today. It was decidedly cooler in the wave pool at Hawaiian Falls where I spent a lot of my time. The heat may have been partially due to that large flaming ball in the sky.

Pflugerville Skies

May29

I spent the day in Pflugerville again today. They have everything you could need in life – Hawaiian Falls water park for some sun, 24 Hour Fitness for some exercise, Golden Chick for some fried chicken, Starbucks for some Frappuccinos, and a beautiful evening sky for some eye candy.

Opening Day

May28

Today was Opening Day for Hawaiian Falls in Pflugerville. The water park was calm, with just a medium sized crowd. Last year, at the end of the season, they were offering huge discounts on season passes, so I bought one. I was happy today that I made that decision back in the Fall. The result was sun, wave pool fun, relaxing in the lazy river, and a great afternoon.

Deutschen Pfest

May22

The Pflugerville Deutschen Pfest made for a fun afternoon. Of course my favorite activity was the petting zoo with the little pigs, rabbits, goats, and chickens who just wanted to have a relaxing Sunday. The bands were good. My favorite was a band called The Eggmen, which is a Beatles tribute band. Otherwise, it was a big happy fair with rides, booths, food and drinks.
