Saturday Morning Update

Well ... the Survivor Pool was not kind to me this past week (or to five of the final six in the pool). I stayed away from the Jacksonville/Houston game for obvious historical reasons, and instead thought Atlanta would win at home against Detroit. Wrong.

The winner was one of the sons of someone in our Finance Department. He's a student at Boston College, so he doesn't need the money, but won it anyway. Ba**ard.

It's been very rainy here this past week ... we have over 3" in the rain guage, and interestingly enough, we also have a reemergence of what I call "Mosquito Alley" in the back corner of the back yard. With the warm weather we've had over the past week, I kind of expect a new batch of mosquitos out of this ... just in time for Thanksgiving. Yikes.

The good thing to report is that Susie and Danny are here now. The Thanksgiving festivities have officially begun.

You know ... Janice and I are so blessed to have wonderful families, both Brookhart (and of course Waggoner) and Cronin. We still talk about our time together with you all, and I'm sure we'll have great times over Thanksgiving. One day, I'd love for us all to be together for a Thanksgiving because I give thanks for you all ..

As I mentioned in a prior post, we have something special planned for Joyce and Joe's 60th Wedding Anniversary. I will give you a hint ... it's something musical (and really rather amazing) ... this will be really special for them. We had the piano tuned this past week, and all is ready. It should be an extremely special time and this is our anniversary gift to them.

I can't wait to see the kids. They arrive on Thanksgiving morning, due to Liz's work schedule. They are doing well (well, at least Liz is, I know) Rhys is a little more difficult to track down.
