Monday

Hey Guys,

Sorry for the lack of post. I have been very busy. I'm not sure how many people read this now so I could be just talking to myself.

Anyway, Wynn got out of the hospital and is doing very well. I think he is planning on playing golf this weekend. He has been sidelined due to the sun and the effects of some medicine.

The Elba-Troy club had a successful 2 days. I would like to thank Coach Blakeney and all the sponsors and golfers. We couldn't have had a tournament without you. I know things are tight with everyone and being a recipient of a scholarship myself, I know how helpful they are.

We are going to the beach this weekend for our 4th trip. We always go and it is truly a time to celebrate our independence and be with family.

Thanks for reading and fins up!
Jr.

P.S. Somebody tell the governor Buffett concerts always sell-out that quick and normally tickets are in the hundred dollar range. What a genius!

Update

Hey Guys,

I wrote the post about Wynn's birthday on Monday and he hasn't been feeling well for the last week. So please keep him in your prayers.

I wrote a blog a few weeks ago about trying to lose weight. Well, I am down a few pounds and I am going to the gym regularly, but I just don't want to eat like I should. If I would do better on the weekends I might be able to catch Uncle Daniel.

The Elba-Troy Club is having our membership meeting on Friday night with Coach Blakeney as our guest speaker. Also, on Saturday we are having our Scholarship golf tournament, The Rann King Memorial. We would love for everybody that is a Troy fan to come out and join us. In fact DeAnn made a Troy fan Page on facebook last night. I kinda hate those things, but they seem to be a necessary evil these days. Got to get page to work.

Oh yea. This is the 500th blog on here. Kinda cool I thought.

Fins Up and Get well Wynn,
Jr.

Go Fight WYNN!!!

That was a quote from a sign we put up at a pep rally in the 7th grade. I really thought "The Good Coach" would kill us all.

My good friend Wynn Grimes has turned 40. It is definitely the end of an era. We have a strange friendship as he is a good bit older than me, but he is absolutely one of my best friends. We have seen and experienced some of the funniest things together. (Thanks for hitting driver man). He was the one that helped me look green the day of my wedding.

I heard a saying once, a good friend will bail you out of jail, but a great friend will be sitting beside you laughing. Well, I sort of hate to admit it, but there have been a few times I thought that might be us.

Anyway, before I incriminate us too bad.

Happy Birthday Coach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope it was a good one.

Saturday after BamaJam

Hey Guys,

I meant to post this Saturday, but I was busy. Friday afternoon we went back over to Enterprise. The Main Stage line-up was pretty good. It consisted of Randy Houser(decent), Jamey Johnson(love his music,but terrible live), Travis Tritt(great show), Hank(you know). We had a very good time except for that Gilley fella and his propaganda. We didn't stay for Train on B after Jr. I was shot after Thursday night.

I got up and came to work on Saturday, we have been busy. Saturday afternoon we had a wedding in Montgomery for some of D's co-workers. The wedding was nice and we went out with some friends afterwards and got back to Elba around midnight. Sunday we went to clean my room at Mom's because Dad is getting my old bed, it's his dad's bed, for his new house. Last night we took it pretty easy because we have been on the go.

I am going to give a memorial day trip report I promise.

Fins Up,

Friday after BamaJam

Good Morning,

I will have to do an extra spell check as I'm a tad bit blurry-eyed. Zac Brown didn't quit until after 2. Miranda and Robert Earl Keen were great, but Zac Brown definitely showed out. Wow that boy can pick. All in all it was great once we got in. It's a little tough for the sweet folks in my life that push me around in the chair. I am so glad I didn't try to walk, I really under estimated the hills.

Ronnie Gilley is a huge JOKE. He did a political speech and that stupid hick quoted Patrick Henry's "Liberty and Death" quote, pertaining to Alabama politics. I'm all for gambling but I know that before I invest millions I would pay the right folks off. Anyway, Mom's is probably going to scold me, so I will hush. Have a good Friday.

Waiting on Jr.

Fins Up,
Jr.

June 2nd

Happy Birthday Mom!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today is my wonderful, sweet, awesome mother's birthday.

I will probably say the same thing I said last year. She meant so much to me before my accident, but what she has done for DeAnn and myself since has been astonishing.

I have probably spent more time with her than anyone except D and we always have such a great time. The sacrifices she has made for Reese and are are evident everywhere, but the beach house might be the biggest. It is a place we all love and enjoy being together and this past weekend was no exception. We had a blast.

Thanks Mom for everything you do. I love you.

Neil
