The Grand Finale

On our way home, we stopped in Paso Robles for dinner (Shawn was determined to drive all the way home). We were intrigued by the GIANT BBQ sign right off the highway and decided to give it a try. BIG BUBBA'S BAD BBQ As soon as I opened the car door, I liked it, because it had music blasting in the parking lot. One step inside and you know you're in for a treat. The decor was wild west a la hamburger factory mixed with the waitresses from coyote ugly (they all ran to the center of the restaurant and danced when a song like "Ice, ice baby" or "hammer time" interrupted their boot-scootin' music. AND located in the corner of the bar was a mechanical bull. I didn't give it much thought since the boy hasn't even ridden a carousel horse since his traumatic experience on a pony at a birthday party over 3 years ago. But surprise surprise! He wanted to give it a try... And try he did! When the operator asked if he wanted to go faster, he yelled YES! Finally they called "8 seconds" and he was starting to slide off but he was determined as the group at the bar are cheering "Hold on Logan!". He survived the 8 seconds and bailed right at the end. WHAT A RIDE! And what a great way to finish a vacation.
