Good Morning, all. 64 and Sunny-ish, here, in Mid-Ten...high to reach about 77. The hurricane's weather finally reached us on Thursday and dump a bunch of rain, had lots of flash flooding and small tornadoes...but the waters receded quickly because the ground was not saturated. That sat on us through yesterday afternoon and then just constant light rain through last night.
Thought last night's game might be postponed, but we played as scheduled. The school we played has only recently started building the field they are playing at and they have no parking lot, yet, so it was a big mud pit. Probably the worst timing for having to play them, but we borrowed my oldest son's Explorer that has 4WD. But, as luck would have it, we got good parking in a grassy area near the road. Still, the wife had to go purchase some mud boots for us, which were awesome.
The youngest continued to start (they think the starter might be back next week, from injury). This was one we were expected to win and we did, 28-0. They played us in a tight game, last year, but they did not even get a first down, last night, and had about -30 yards total. After we had our starting quarterback go down in the first game (he actually is finished playing football, for good...multiple concussions), we had 2 QBs join the team, this week. So, we had 4 different QBs play last night...that was odd...but effective.
Chuckers, yeah, those antibiotics can make you very sensitive to the sun...stay frosty and don't let a little agony hold you back. Seriously, I hope you feel great in 8 days and go on to have a blast.
Schumi, nothing wrong with practice packing...as long as the suit cases are there. I was once told if you want to have the best possible time, pack your suit cases...then, put all the money you plan to spend on top of the clothes (in the suit case)...now, remove half of the clothes and put in twice as much money, and you're all set.
Because NOTHING is stopping me from taking this trip, gol dang it!
