Visit Catalina Island: Lloyd's of Avalon

Of course we stopped to get some ice cream while on Catalina Island.  We ended up at Lloyd's of Avalon , where one of the employees told us they source the ice cream from various vendors (so it's not housemade). Cookie Monster Mocha Almond Fudge Bubble Gum Honey Churro I had the Honey Churro, which was a little too sweet for my liking. Everyone else loved the ice cream flavors they chose, however. The ice cream definitely helped to beat the Catalina Island heat! Lloyd's of Avalon 315 Crescent Ave Avalon, CA 90704  

Abilene's Western Heritage Classic May 10 - 13, 2018

The 34th annual Western Heritage Classic gallops into Abilene, Texas, May 10 -13, 2018.

The internationally recognized event is held at the Taylor County Expo Center and showcases cowboy lifestyle at its finest and most authentic, right down to the chuck wagon cook off, where participants are judged not only on the flavor of their grub but also on period equipment.

The weekend’s highlight is the Ranch Rodeo in which some of the largest and most historic ranches in the country compete in various skill categories. Young cowboys and cowgirls can join in on the fun with the Stickhorse Rodeo and Steer Dummy Roping.

And “shopportunities” abound at the Heritage Trading Post or Bit & Spur Show. Other weekend events include live music, a parade, the chuck wagon cook off and cowboy poetry readings. For schedule and ticket information please visit www.westernheritageclassic.com
