Up With the White and Gold

September 24, 2022September 21, 2022

We headed down to campus last weekend for the Georgia Tech v Ole Miss game.

While I’m sure we didn’t fool anyone around us, Honey and I felt like we were students again. Bopping from tailgate to tailgate, hanging at a band party at the SAE house and day drinking like we didn’t have a care in the world.

I never did bother too much about the score board, which would behoove any Georgia Tech fan. I’m prettttty sure the Jackets didn’t even eek out a point. But, like the last 28 years, I was really just there for the party.

Go Tech. Up with the white and gold!

We spent the most amazing Spring Break week in Kentucky earlier this year, with the highlight being our day at the Keeneland races. I typically only bring home Christmas ornaments as souvenirs, but couldn’t resist picking up a few “real” horseshoes in the gift shop. I got one for each of the boys, and a… Read More
