Tennessee, Mississippi, Colorado

I know what song you are singing...."One of these things is not like the other ones!"
And you would be right! But here is why I mentioned those 3 particular states, I am going to be in all three within the next two days. We leave tonight for Memphis and Matt's ball game at Harding Academy. Tomorrow he, Jan and I are going to watch Ole Miss vs. Bama in Oxford. YEAH BABY! :) Then we come back to Searcy tomorrow night and I get up Sunday morning and fly to beautiful Colorado. Those of you watching the weather know it has already snowed there, so the Rockies should already be snow capped. Am I blessed or what? Weekend with blood family, then the next week with my bigger family in Christ. Don't get much better than that! I think my lap-top is staying in Searcy, so I won't be bloggin next week. Yeah, withdrawal symptoms for sure will be in play.

If you get a chance, check out the good discussion going on over at Greg Kendall-Ball's blog. I'll give him one thing......he knows how to push our buttons and get a good discussion going. Nothing wrong with that!

Have a great week next week, bloggin family!


P.S. Not everything is going to be rosy next week, in that your's truly turns a HALF CENTURY on Thursday. FIFTY!!!!!!! Why do I still feel 18 in my mind? Don't answer that, Craig or Keith Riley!

I don't know what time you're getting to Oxford but get there in time to walk through the "Grove." Its neat to see literally thousands of families with tents tailgating all day in this beautiful area on campus surrounded by 100 year old trees and stately colonial buildings that take you back to the turn of the century. Its a great tradition to witness, even through the eyes of a Hog Fan!As the kickoff approaches, the players walk through the grove, dressed neatly in suits and ties,cheered on by their adoring fans.(Did I mention the constant consumption of liquor leading up to gametime?)All southern charm and manners quickly disappear once the game starts and the Rebel fans start rebelling. Its fun to watch. You're turning FIFTY! More to say about that later. Have fun in the mountains next week.

The big 5-0 is not that bad. Just as long as you don't act like it! Take care.

Allow me to congratulate you on reaching 50 and for being the winner in the "worst church marquee" contest, gramps.

Does your post-50 diet still allow you to eat at Bobby's? You've got a free breakfast coming.

Happy 50th, DU! When you go to Bobby's with Mark, have an extra sausage biscuit for me!

Happy first 50 years!

Remember when Harding's motto was "Educating for Eternity?" (My college roommate Steve once said it's really only four or five years; it just seems like an eternity.)

Well ... that's how the second 50 years end!

Looking forward to it with you.

Happy Fiftieth, David!

It's rare that I ever think of Agatha Christie, but this quote of hers seems right for you today:
I have enjoyed greatly the second blooming that comes when you finish the life of the emotions and of personal relations; and suddenly find - at the age of fifty, say - that a whole new life has opened before you, filled with things you can think about, study, or read about...It is as if a fresh sap of ideas and thoughts was rising in you.
