An American Goodbye

Tonight was our last night living in the USA. So to be as American as possible, we went out for BBQ at RUB followed by watching bull riding at Madison Square Garden. It was a night of meat, alcohol, funny costumes, hollering, new friends, old friends, and a drunk cougar. PBR began with a salute to America, complete with policemen, fireworks, and USA burned into the floor of the Garden. We then befriended a group of people from upstate New York, who shared their Southern Comfort with us and partook in betting with us on bull vs. rider. As I sat back watching the festivities sipping on my Lynchberg Lemonade, I realized that this was the perfect send off.
