ROLL TIDE!



Jeff and I have been blessed by a wonderful couple who live over in Jacksonville. For several years they have invited us to Jacksonville, put us up in a hotel, taken us to wonderful dinners and to a Jacksonville Jaguars games where we would have lunch in the Quarterback Club and sit on the 50 yard line. They treated us like royalty and we have thoroughly enjoyed their wonderful hospitality.

This past weekend we traveled to Jacksonville once again with their kindness to see FSU vs BAMA. Although we got to visit shortly with Jim at his office we did not get to see Kay as they were getting ready to travel to Gainesville for the Auburn vs Gator game. We stayed at a hotel on the beach ... where the red tide had just come in and caused me to have a terrible asthma attack and the wind was whipping because of a local Nor'easter. No romantic walks on the beach for us! Then of course there was the game ... BAMA Lost ... ugh! Jeff and I laughed the whole game because our arms wanted to go up to do the Seminole Chop or spell out F L O R I D A S T A T E, which we would normally do ... but today we were for the opposing team. Although it wasn't the greatest trip we have taken it was still nice to spend the weekend with my hubby.

Great photos! I enjoyed your blog about listening to the still small voice. You are getting very good at blogging.
Keep it up.

How fitting...the red tide rolled in...
Even though there were a few 'hiccups', sounds like you all had a great weekend.
I, too, love the photos. Did you take the one of the players on the field? Also, love the one of you and Jeff...you are great at remembering to get someone to take your photo.

We thought it was funny too that the red "crimson" tide came in too.
Yes, I took the one on the field we were between the 35 and 40 yard line, 15 rows up. Good seats!
Jeff had been taking a pic of me when a guy came over and asked if he could take one for us. He had been looking at Nikons and was excited to try one.
