Each day I try to take as many pics as I can then at the end of the day I like to choose one that makes me smile 😃.

Tonight Linda and I were sitting on the top row on the Home side and during the Boys Varsity game and I enjoying the positive cheering coming from the folks sitting next to us. The game within the game became whos Family 👪 were we sitting next to ?

When Coach Barnes drew up a perfect play to finish out the third quarter that ended when Jabin Talley capped the play by draining a 3-pointer I no longer was wondering who my neighbors for the game were…..I present the Talley Family 👪

You will only appreciate the humor in this one if you have been following along.

Twenty four hours after learning that Paul has a daughter or two or three, tonight I found out that Paul has a little Brother.

I had the opportunity to shake his hand and told him to hang in there, he’s still got time to be more like Paul…..

Lin and I have safely made it back out to our part of the Woods. On the drive 🚗 home I counted eight stories that I want to tell in hopes of bringing joy to our readers. Those stories will include a bit of humor, a touch of respect and a great deal of joy.

My only deadline is tomorrow afternoon when its time to head up to Lexington. The stories will appear in no particular order….

Stories to Follow, plenty of stories to follow.

Captured outside of the Pool in Daleville last night 🌙 this picture is special for multiple reasons.

Reason #1 of 3 – As much as I want to shine a Positive Light on the Students, I am overwhelmed by the support they receive on a regular basis from both the Parents and Grandparents. We don’t always play just around the corner from Cavs Drive.

Reason #2 – Nothing beats a wholesome picture as they say – A picture is sometimes worth a Thousand words.

Reason #3 – Tara and Karmen are joined in the photo by Ethan Richardson and an incredibly Nice Lady that I can say is One of Paul’s 3 daughters.

Just trying to take my energy and make my neighbors smile.
