Andrew Good is doing Great Things in Page County, Virginia, and it’s a pleasure to play a small part in his efforts !

Andrew Good is a busy, busy young man, and watching him operate from a distance is a joy. Later tonight, over at Luray Middle School 🏫 he will be the person who is responsible for the volleyball 🏐 tournament that our son is coaching in.

That is one of many, many things that Andrew is responsible for on any given day as he is dedicated to providing wholesome opportunities for the folks in his area.

Having been responsible for well over 100 golf ⛳️ outings over the decades, I can truly appreciate the manner that Andrew conducts his business.

Taking the time to walk people through exactly where their money is going is a big part of the success of the annual event !

The course is easy on the eyes πŸ‘€ for sure but difficult to play. Yet, someone will manage to card a 59 on the par 72 layout. But there is no threat of it being our group.

We are missing our fourth golfer πŸŒοΈβ€β™‚οΈthis morning as Marion Harris remained in Carroll County as he has adult responsibilities to tend to but should be ready to hit the ground running before the 8:00 am check in time on Saturday.

Am I partial to Mr. Good because his efforts provide multiple opportunities for my son ?  It probably doesn’t hurt, but my Kiddo speaks highly of everything he does and how much he cares about the people he does it for.

To call πŸ“ž today, a ” practice round ” would be a REACH. Everyone enters a golf tournament for a different reason, with mine being caring about the cause of the event. Pencil ✏️ in our 65 now, but know that we will compete for most fellowship experienced.

I don’t envision a day where my site has a sponsor, but if there was ever going to happen, I would want it to be my man (Beaver) Buc-ee !

We even had a Vickey Ritchie moment inside…

Vickey Ritchie is the queen πŸ‘Έ of Halloween πŸŽƒ!

The happiest place on earth 🌎….

If you look closely at him, you will see Kevin Burress ! Big heart ❀️, Big smile πŸ˜€ and his arms extended to welcome you !

The Morning πŸŒ„ Brew for July 30th takes place in Lexington, Virginia, where there is a chill in the air.

Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Howard Mayo and his Motovational Nugget for the Day should appear here shortly !
Amen πŸ™

Have a Blessed Day πŸ™ŒπŸ˜‡πŸ™

Not tonight, maybe tomorrow ? Toronto Tempo hosts Minnesota tonight and now has just five more home games left this season.

There have been more loops finished in my lifetime than I can remember, and the stadiums 🏟 of the WNBA are one of them. A few years back, Lin joined me for a trip to Minneapolis for a Lynx home game to complete the box set.

  Then the league went pop, pop, and pop by adding San Francisco, Portland, and Toronto to the mix in a very small amount of time. Getting to tack on a Portland Fire πŸ”₯ home game a few days ago was a fun experience, but if created a ” hanging Chad ” in Toronto, Ontario, Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦.

Toronto Tempo is also wrapping up its inaugural season, and tonight is the first of their final six home dates. But tonight is set to be about a Middle School 🏫 Volleyball 🏐 match in Luray, Virginia, so we turn the page to the final five dates.

Two of the five are against the Indiana Fever, which sadly means highly inflated ticket 🎟 prices. That leaves three to choose from 8/21, 8/23, and 9/20.

Women’s basketball πŸ€ is a passion of mine and has been my entire life. I trace it back to the days when my late mother would come outside and play the game she played back in the 1950’s. Mom πŸ‘© had  game, and while her body gave out way to soon later in life, she loved to play basketball.

The tricky part about the final three home dates is that I should have Linda back home by then. Niagara Falls is just south of Toronto, and it’s been a hot minute since I took her there. Yeah, that’s the ticket 🎟.

Toronto is a beautiful place to visit, even if it is a bit busy nowadays.

The upside to the WNBA is that my favorite player is set to return to action here in a few days ! Kelsey Plum has been out for a month now but will be playing again on August 2nd…
