Today is the reason why I am such a Fan of All-Things Duke University πŸ’™

  It’s not unusual for a morning to start near the Campus of Duke University but this time its a little bit different. Linda and I await our opportunity to meet with the Brain 🧠 Doctor this morning in hopes of finding out more about the situation we are currently in with regards to Lin’s well being.

  It’s never been about how many wins a team earns in a given season or how many Bowl πŸ₯£ games our little Football team qualifies for. It’s about Higher Education and the advancement in Medical πŸš‘ technology.

It’s a shame that they don’t make Bobbleheads for Doctors !

If you are someone who prays πŸ™, we welcome that today !

Once, Twice, Three times for the Ladies ! Plus the Lady Cavaliers still in action πŸŽ¬

The Minnesota Frost captured their second consecutive Championship in the Professional Women’s Hockey πŸ’ League and did so in front of a crowd just over 11,000.

A second tip of the Cap to Women’s Sports goes to the University of North Carolina after the Tar Heels πŸ‘  captured yet another National Championship in a team sport. Add Women’s LaCrosse to the list of Natty’s for the Tar Heels!

Kelsey Plum dropped 28 points in Game #5 on the season as the Sparks look to stay afloat until Cameron Brink gets healthy enough to return to the court.

Minnesota is off to a red hot πŸ₯΅πŸ”₯ 4-0 start in the WNBA.

Brink hoping πŸ™ to return sooner than later.

Β  If you find yourself in Mt.Airy and are looking for a healthy walk, jog, run or bike ride, look no further than the Granite City Greenway.

The elevation levels in the above screen shot displays just how flat / manageable this stretch of the Loop is.

Happy St Patrick’s Day and we learn that you have to have a sense of Humor to survive the Twist and Turns…

The Hilton Head Island πŸ—ΏπŸ area was once our 🏑🏠🏑 and two of our five Children graduated πŸŽ“ High School here.

Every two years we return to the area and spend 8 days and 7 nights at a place on the Ocean but trip #12 has turned out to be a bit different. Our place is designed for eight people and we are always inviting people who we enjoy spending time with to join us.

This year it didn’t happen the way we planned and at Saturday check-in it was just Lin and myself, for the first time. Just a few minutes from now that number will be cut βœ‚οΈ in half as Lin’s flight ✈️ to El Paso by way of Dallas / Fort Worth will depart.

6:44 am is departure time and she doesn’t return until Thursday night.

What can you do but roll with it and smile????

Oracle is a great company to work for and we are thankful πŸ™ for the opportunity ( I almost believe that).

I can tell you that the CCHS calendar is blank today but its the calm before the storm as the Spring regular season starts tomorrow (Tuesday).

There’s still hope for me though, as I was leaving the Airport I met someone who might hang out with me for a few days!!!

Enjoy the Holiday and hopefully you can spend it with someone who will make it better because that is what Life is all about.

I need to go and take my new friend out to Breakfast before she wastes away to nothing.

Work on your brackets and make plans for the North Carolina game in Dayton, Ohio on Tuesday night πŸŒ™. We needed the Heels in and now we need them to pick-up a W…

Time to head back over! Remember that its not a Sad story, just a story…
