Hi Everyone!
It has been a long time since I have had the opportunity or need to post on Neil's blog. I know he has kept you up-to-date on the activities in Tuscaloosa. For a town I have lived in for less than 2 years I have become very attached!
Many of you probably know that as I turned 30 this past year I thought I would do something a little different with my year. I made a list of 30 Things I want to do when I am 30. I started a blog that is tracking them in a way. With the storms that blew through a few weeks ago I have compiled a list of ways to help and have a link on the left side of my blog (the houndstooth ribbon)to the list. If you would like to see my small personal list just go to my blog at:

Just wanted to share and I hope you all are doing well!

Weekend
Hey Guys,
I hope everyone is doing well. DeAnn scolded me about my grammar and usage in the blog. I believe you all no that I am knot wrighting this to bee a professional. I usually type this, proofread it once and then let it go. I hope I don't offend anyone with my words.
Last weekend Mom, Dad, and I went to Tuscaloosa to volunteer. We got to Temporary Emergency Services(TES) on Saturday morning. I was checking in clients while they unloaded supplies and folded clothes. After a few hours I was just amazed at the support our state was getting from the rest of the country. We saw trailers come in from NC, Kentucky, and Texas. Most of the people were grateful for the help. They still need certain items in and around Tuscaloosa.
If anyone wants to get some things together I will be glad to get them up there. The most needed items I saw were cleaning supplies, new underwear, and gloves.
I was glad to help and coming from Elba we know what it feels like to see others want to contribute.
Fins Up,
Jr

Prayers
Hey Guys,
Most of you probably know about the passing of Allona Vaughan. It is certainly tragic and shocking. The Vaughans' have lived by us my whole life and the old Saddle Hill was very close. I guess time has a way of distancing people. As a kid we all gathered up from Che and Scott down to me and I am 5 years younger. Even though I don't see them all the time like I used to when ever I do we always laugh and joke usually at my expense. Ronnie, Prissy, and Che have been on my mind constantly since yesterday morning. Please pray for this sweet family

Thursday
The cleanup in Tuscaloosa continues. Reese said things are kind of returning to normal or as close as it can be. We went to the beach last weekend. Everyone was planning to go to Tuscaloosa, but the relief efforts hadn't gotten kicked off yet. I think Mom is planning on going this weekend.
The beach was great. It was "Thunder Beach" so if you like hearing bikes roar all weekend it was definitely the places for you. Luckily, Mom's place is a little secluded so it wasn't too bad. Saturday night we went to Capt. Anderson's. No wait and the meal was fantastic. I had been talking up Ebro and Mom was driving so when she gave me a sly look I knew what was happening. Unfortunately, the dogs don't start running until the end of May.
Happy Cinco de Mayo and Fins Up,
