Labor Day and Bleeding Purple

Hi kids; long time no see. There hasn't been much to report lately from the good ole JoCo.

If it wasn't for such an Ah-mazing Labor Day weekend

I'd probably not be blogging now.

I'm actually gonna sum up the weekend in reverse.

Monday sucked...it was D's birthday so he played golf while I stayed home and studied for a damn test.

Made an A so I guess it turned out okay. 'Nuff about Monday...on to Sunday

How 'bout those Pirates, eh?

I've never been so proud to be Pirate. That last minute catch to win the game was better than sex. Excited would be an understatement of the century.

Some of my fav college buddies





And the catch of all catches


Saturday:

Some of my ECU and AOPi peeps headed to the lake for a day of soaking
up some of the last rays of summer.
We took 3 trips just to get all our camping gear to the site,
which we declared as Dick Back Mountain much to the expense of Morgan.
Sorry, M; we just couldn't help it!

We drank and ate and drank...and drank.
Well you get the picture.

I don't have any pictures of Dick Back Mountain.

I blame it on the massive amount of beer we all consumed.

We had quite the set up.

2 huge tents, a campfire, a grill & coolers galore

The weather was perfect for sleeping outside; a cool 55

Even the critters were out and about; they kept me up all night.

I could have gone without the howling of the coyote

and the squaking of what sounded like a prehistoric creature

perhaps a Taradactale (how do you spell that anyway?)

I'm hoping to make this an annual event.

But for God's sake, next year don't forget the Crystal Light!
