Hey David, I've always loved Breaking Away, I've seen it many many times.  I still watch it if I see on on tV  now.

Dennis Quaid sure was cute in it, actually they all were. ;D

Kelda:
Never mind breakaway - what about Alex!?!

David In Indy:
I think I'm having a little too much fun with youtube! I had no idea people posted clips from movies on there! It's like a treasure trove!  :D

I just found a clip from another good movie! This is the opening scene from "Hoosiers" (1986), another movie filmed entirely on location in Indiana. Gene Hackman and Barbara Hershey star in it. My sister and brother in law, along with a few of my friends were part of the crowd in the final scene of the movie at Butler Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. I'll see if I can find a clip of that scene on youtube.  :D

Actually I posted this clip for Melissa because I've been telling her so much about this movie, but all of you are welcome to watch it!  ;)

This clip is just under 4 minutes.

I think Kelda wants me to tell her all about Alex!  8)

Well Kelda, Alex and two of his friends are flying in from London this Friday. His friends will stay for about a week (or a week and a half, I can't remember for certain) and then they will go back to England and Sweet Baby will stay here through Labor Day!  :D

Apparently his friends had so much fun here the last time they wanted to come back!! It's pretty much the exact same trip the three of them made to Indiana in May. I'm hoping the weather will cool down before they get here though. They are forecasting temperatures in the upper 90's and lower 100's F this week. It was hot the last time they were here and they didn't appreciate the heat very much. This time it's supposed to be even hotter. Thank God I have air conditioning in my house. Hoosiers don't pay too much attention to the heat. I guess we get used to it, but people from England don't seem to like it very much!  :D

I'm still trying to figure out some things to do while they are here. I would like to take them to King's Island in Cincinnati or Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville (both about a 2 hour drive from here) but maybe this wouldn't be such a good idea if it will be hot outside. I may take them to Lake Wawasee up in northern Indiana for a few days. I hope I figure something out soon because they will be here in 5 days! YEAAAAAA!!!!!  :D

Kelda:
Great David! (when is labour day btw?)

Are you counting down the hours and minutes yet?!
