Monday

Hey Guys,

I really hope everyone is getting ready for good food and a few days off.  I know I'm ready for both.  I'm going to digress a little and go back to last weekend.  Late Friday afternoon DeAnn, Jerry, and I took Merrill to the Elba playoff game in Flomaton.  Our football team is really looking better and better.  If we can get some of the penalties under control we might be unstoppable.  After we made a few adjustments we played very well in the 2nd half and won 33-23.

Saturday morning I went to the office and left for Dothan around 11:30.  I had been invited by the Waters' to watch the Bama game and didn't want to lose a future invite if I failed to show.  We had a great time as usual, but had to pull for Bama a tad more than I intended.  If you ever need a laugh I suggest going over there as the Stephens' and Waters' will certainly do the trick.

When I got back to Elba I went to DeAnn's parents to celebrate Alison's birthday.   Happy 25th Al!!!!!!


Fins Up, Happy Thanksgiving and RTR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Grandmama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today is my Grandmother's 80th Birthday.  I might have written this before, but I'm gonna write it again.  I never knew her age until probably 10 years ago.  When I was a kid when asked how old she was she always responded "old enough yo be your grandmama".  So, Happy Birthday.  I Love You!

Go Time!

Our hometown Elba Tigers are in the playoffs as the #1 seed.  This team has more speed than any high school team I've  ever seen.  We breezed through much of the schedule and scored 50+ most Friday nights.  Elba has a wonderful football tradition and we are a proud town.  I hope everyone keeps their opinions to themselves and supports these guys as they hopefully make a trip to Tuscaloosa.

After Coach Wood retired we didn't have much to cheer about and all everyone wanted was a winner.  We now have been winners for several years now and people complain that we are not winning like we should.  My Dad always says "there's more than one way to skin a cat".  Listening to some people in Elba you would not believe that is true.  I'm not posting this to debate right and wrong, I'm simply on here saying SUPPORT THE TEAM.  They don't need distractions as they try to fulfill a dream season.

Fins Up and Go Elbie,
