Collecting certain things can become a family tradition. Some people collect model cars, Breyer horses, or other figurines. Precious Moments is a popular one. But it doesn't just have to be things like this. Some people collect certain brand names like John Deere, Nascar items (some collections pertain to specific drivers), metal signs, and many many more. Everyone can find something they wish to collect and pass down from generation to generation.
My son collects trains, John Deere items and movies, and cars from the Cars movies. I collect horses and books by Mercedes Lackey. It doesn't matter what you collect, as long as you enjoy and share your collections.

The Demolition Derby
Who can forget the great american demolition derby! What's more fun than watching a bunch of big old cars hit each other until only one is left? Demo derbys are always a favorite with kids, adults, and anyone inbetween. It's a great way for the family to spend an evening. You see a lot of action, tempers fly, and the cars are built just for this event. The fans cheer their favorite drivers and the loudest hits. And, this doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg to do. So pack up the family for the annual demo derby and get ready to get dirty!

The Traditional RV
If you like to travel a lot, then you probably get out the RV or camper alot. And why not? You can be like a turtle and have your home away from home with you wherever you go. You can save the hassle of finding a hotel. You can camp just about anywhere with an RV or camper. You can stay (within reason and the law) where you want to. You can even get an RV or camper with a section in the back for your horses, or your ATV'S. When you visit relatives on the annual trip, you can still have your own personal space. You can start your own traditions with your RV or camper.

Horse Racing
Another type of racing that many have made a tradition out of is called "The Sport Of kings". Horse racing is so named because in old times, horses were tested against each other to entertain and honor the past kings of some countries. Only the best horses from the king's stables were permitted to run.
But today, this is a multi-million dollar industry that is open to just about all classes and levels of horses, owners, and fans alike. Who doesn't love to watch the beauty and majesty of these terrific animals as they fight for the wire. The best known race around the world is The Kentucky Derby. Famous people from all over the world take part in this particular race.
So if you want something that is fun to do, head to the nearest track. Maybe even place a bet or two if you feel lucky. The whole family can enjoy this tradition that is The Sport Of Kings.
