I must admit Liz and I aren't really big Olympic fans, and had we been at home for the Olympics, we probably wouldn't have watched anything except the opening ceremony and parade of nations.
However, since we are on vacation and tend to spend a lot of time sitting in local bars. (No idea how this comes to be.) The different events were on and in between talking with locals and snowbirds, I can't help but watch the TVs.
We got to see a LOT of the Olympics and were particularly impressed with the couples figure skating contests. How they can do those things and not wipe out and fall is beyond me. I especially liked the costumed event.
Here's to a great job, Vancouver!! Liz and I visited there on our trip to Washington state and found it to be one of the cleanest and nicest big cities we have ever seen. Hopefully, they will keep the Olympic Torch burning. That was an impressive structure.
We even watched the hockey games, something we never do during the NHL season. Knew it would come down to the US NHL players vs. the Canadian NHL players. Exciting anyway.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
