Mississississississippi ?

What a mess! I didn't think that the Gators would stumble on this one. It amazes me that how wide the spread is between up and down when you are talking about 19 year old kids. Two good things come out of this. 1. Early vs Late season loss. 2. Georgia lost too! I really believe it comes down to a game in Jacksonville, as it should. Come on Gators ! Mom and Dad left for Florida today. I'm thankful that we have had the time to spend together over the last three weeks. They called not long ago, and let me know they found enough gas to make it back. Love You Guys!

Rocky Flop Again !

What a beautiful Tennessee afternoon! I couldn't believe how pretty the HD picture was. Mom and Dad had the opportunity to attend the game. I'm so glad that they could be there to remind the Tennessee fans that we haven't forgotten how to play! It's getting close to the time for me to make the annual call to Eric and Jennifer. We call each other after the game to check in. Usually the winner makes the call.
Go Gators !!

National Quartet Convention 2008 !!

We made it! Mom, Dad & I made it to Louisville for the NQC. It was a great time to be together and enjoy some moving times. The NQC is a rare opportunity to get filled up with great music that contains great truth. Late nights, and catch up days. A rare opportunity to see the Crabb Family perform a reunion concert. They tore up "Through The Fire" Of coarse the Booth Brothers took most of the Singing News awards. We just had one great time together...what more can I say..Love You Mom & Dad!

23 Years!

If you would have told me in 1985, it would be 23 years until we won against Miami. I would have thought "no way" Last night we played another typical instate game that was very physical. At the end, the gators were pulling away. What was obvious, was that we had a clear advantage when it comes to conditioning. That was the difference. When 18year old kids reunite to play against friends and neighbors, you can throw out just about everything except conditioning. Struggles and challenges in this life serve the same purpose, they condition us! Go Gators!

Gatlinburg

We had a quick trip. The girls got to sleep and relax a little bit. The weather was great!Dad and Alison got to load up and take the Vespa accross the mountian a few times.

From what I can tell, Alison is driving the thing! Both of them light up when someone mentions taking a ride. The crabs were ready to go when we got there. Everybody got plenty. We always debate whether or not the red kings or the snow's are the best. I stick with the kings. We had a spread!

Debbie and the girls got a chance to get out in the park and hit the trails. Looks like it was a fun time. Everyone stayed dry! We all had a great time. A special memory!
