"Don't cry for me...
..Argentina"
Ok, that was dumb, but it is a connection to Argentina that everyone should know. This picture is the view from my hotel looking down Avenida 9 de Julio which is in Buenos Aires. Its name honors Argentina's Independence Day which was July 9, 1816. It is also the widest avenue in the world (at least that is what Wikipedia said), which is a tidbit you can now use when playing Trivial Pursuit.
I am here for work/pleasure and will be returning to Boston on the 18th of October. I am heading to Cordoba, Argentina for the weekend with Allison’s Uncle and my friend David Malin to go hunting for Dove (or as they say in Spanish “caza de la paloma”).
This will be my first hunting trip for anything other than cars or electronics.
I'm pretty sure that hunting for cars or electronics doesn't count, as you normally don't use a gun in either of those endeavors. It should be a lot of fun. Hopefully I will be able to hit at least 1 of the 25 million dove in the Cordoba region.
Just an update for you if you are playing “Where in the world is Chris Miller”…..
Now I'm off to think/sing about other dumb connections to places I am visiting...

Seriously, this blog has now afforded me the opportunity to sing "Sweet Caroline" and whatever the name of that Evita song is. For the record, I am LOVING this blog, and I referenced it on someone else's blog only to point out that cool people (like Allison and Chris) do, in fact, blog...
