Blu Ray

No, today's title does not refer to the Tampa Bay Ray's recent losing streak during the opening round of the playoffs. They still have one game left, so we'll see how that turns out.

What it refers to is this: we have joined the rest of the world in purchasing a Blu Ray player. That was actually Mommy's birthday present for Daddy, which we promptly hooked up to take a peek at. We've been collecting Blu Ray movies all along, so we popped in "Alice in Wonderland" first, and then for Madison, we watched the first half of "The Princess and the Frog." Neat technology, though we're a bit behind on picking it up. It's really clear, but then again, our LED television set makes everything amazingly vivid.

I only refer to this now, as someday they'll be a "Gold Ray" or something like that, where we'll all be having to collect new discs and players because they'll make what we're looking like now seem ancient. The amusing thing about my set-up in the new house is that I'll be picking up:

a) a VHS player. We still have VHS tapes.
b) a record player. Yes, I still like to play records from time to time.

Today, we visited Doc Williams again, as we have a chiropractic visit every two months or so. Madison, as usual, loved it. She giggled and laughed hard all the way through the experience. Seriously: she has such a good time there. And, like always, she makes sure everyone follows the right routine. She even knows how to roll the sheets out on the beds and clamp them down!

We ate at Cracker Barrel tonight, on a whim really. Hadn't eaten there in a while, so we stopped by to check out their new "harvest menu," and see all the new stuff they have in their store. The decorations and seasonal products they have there are always nice, and the candy is good too - just ask Madison!
