This weekend was so freaking amazing. It started out really slow, Friday I didn't really do anything. Saturday I went to this training class for work that was supposed to be 6 hours, from like 9-3, but it only ended up being 3 hours. And did I mention she still gave us credit for the 6 hours, AMAZING lol. Then I went to a coworker's baby shower, which wasn't exactly super exciting. We're not super close but I went with some girls from work and we had a good time. Then came the amazing part of my weekend. I got to go to BUBBAFEST!!!!!!
For those of you that aren't familiar with Bubbafest, its held on like 300 acres of private property and its just a gigantic all weekend long trailriding event. People come from all over Kentucky Ohio and Indiana just to trail ride on this piece of land. The guy who holds it has conscession stands and a dj and events with different obstacles. The most popular event is the mud bog. It is crazy, I've been going for the past 5 years and I've literally never seen this ravine dried up. It is just thick nasty mud. The goal of this task is to get your trail rider from one end of the ravine to the other and get it out without breaking anything or getting stuck. It sounds so simple but if you've ever seen it or actually been a part of it, its anything but simple.
I was so excited to go this year, I didn't think me and my boyfriend were going to be able to. But when he got tickets I almost screamed I was so excited. I may not look like it in class but I love to get muddy and dirty and beat the crap out of trail riders. The muddier the better. There was a downside to last night though. As we were standing around in the garage watching everyone fix things, the paramedics were called. Apparently a girl was riding on a quad without a helmet and fell off. She wasn't hurt badly but she did have a cut on her forehead.
Some time passed and we were still waiting for everyone to get their stuff ready to go and the paramedics came by again. Someone else had gotten hurt. From what I heard, a guy a flipped on a hill with his girlfriend in the passenger seat and she was unconcsious. When she woke up she was bleeding from the head so they called the paramedics.
I know it sucks for both of those girls but when you go to something like this you HAVE to be safe. You HAVE to wear your helmet and safety harnesses and seatbelts and whatever else you have to keep yourself safe. Its only fun if you live through it. No one is going to think your stupid for wanting to stay alive.
Well anyways besides those incidents I had a blast. The jeep my boyfriend just got wasn't exactly ready for the trails yet. It has a really bad spot on the frame in the back so we didn't go down in the woods very much and in the creek. However we did get to cruise around on the main trails and hang out around the big bonfire and have real good time with all of our friends that we haven't seen in forever! I wish Bubbafest was every weekend!!!!!!
I've heard of that, alot of my cousins and uncles and aunts from Cynthiana go to that. My uncle Brud, uncle Jeffrey, aunt Lisa, aunt Robin and aunt Laura, cousins J.G. Mariah, go to that. They were talking about going to that thing, plus this one guy I graduated high school with lives for these things. He has a quad runner, i think that's what they're called, you know the big motorcycles with 4 big wheels. But yeah, I've heard of it, alot of my family from around Cynthiana go to that every year! They have that date for it marked on their calendars every year.
