I drove Dad and Chris to the airport this afternoon for their flight back home. They flew to Birmingham by way of Nashville, where they had to change planes. Then they drove back to Brindlee Mountain. Dad phoned about an hour ago to say that they had arrived safely and had enjoyed their visit. I […]

Dad and Chris in the air

Friday, December 29th, 2006

They’ve crossed the Mississippi River into Louisiana:

Looks like they’re flying into bad weather. We’re going to keep an eye on their flight status before we leave for the airport to pick them up.
Update, 6:44 PM: They’re flying around the weather:

The web site estimates that they’ll arrive 10 minutes early. We will have to leave for […]

I received several books for Christmas this year, including You Better Be Right, My 25 Years as an SEC Football Official by Dick Burleson. I’ve read a few chapters already and find it to be a humorous and informative book about SEC football and officiating. What makes it worth noting here, though, is the mention […]

Aspy update

Monday, August 7th, 2006

Aspy came home from the vet today. Genna and the vet decided that it would be best to let him come home and keep an eye on him for a few days. He’s heavily loaded with pain killers, and his leg is swollen, but he’s up and able to get around. Wendy said that the […]

Chris becomes a blogger!

Friday, August 4th, 2006

Christopher has a new weblog:
http://chris.jimthompson.org/wp/
This will be the last weblog I offer to host for anybody. It’s not that any one weblog is a lot of trouble, but I’m now taking care of six in addition to mine, and that’s enough for any one person to manage.
However, if anyone else out there wants to get […]
