Van Earl

A Facebook friend is friends with Fox announcer Van Earl Wright. Van Earl is friends with Kenny Albert (& Buckhead Church, where brother Scot is an “elder”…but not the similar Johnson Ferry group, where other brother Bryant is pastor. Hmmm). Looks like Van Earl currently lives in Salt Lake City.

Took Anna Thursday night to get a new pair of new balance shoes, at Rack Room. Thought Friday would be quiet, but early on a vendor called…our plant had cut almost $20,000.00 an inch too short. So I spent over have the day trying to find a very scarce item.

Ceil picked me up Friday at 6 pm after my day full of emergencies. I let her stop and shop the Gwinnett Talbots outlet, not knowing about the storms til almost 7 pm. Matthew had to get something to eat, so we stopped at the M of Ga ChickfilA. Rain, lightning, and wind started after we got on 85 North, & continued the next 5 hours…one of the rougher drives I had. Had I known earlier about the rough weather, I would’ve headed out sooner. Someone had put C’s cell on vibrate, so she was out of contact all Friday. Didn’t pay attention and missed my exit in Greenville (I’ll blame it on the rain!)…but that only cost us ten minutes.

Listened to some of the Braves game on the way. Sutton had Pete on…they should’ve let Pete call Escobar’s home run. On the radio Sutton thought he was a lefty, but writing is the only thing he does lefty. Also the rain delay show with Chip and the Lemmer. Bout time they started back I lost the signal…but picked up the end of the Indians/Blue Jays game from the Cleveland AM clear channel.

Didn’t do much Saturday…great weather for a run over country roads. Watched the Masters and took Matthew to Burger King.

Not a great Easter Service where we were Sunday. Left about 2:30 to come back…Will drove the first 2.5 hours to Augusta without me having too many heart attacks. Listened to the dramatic Masters finish on the radio. All the Moes were closed last night, so we picked up a PaPaJohns Pizza.

Found out our company does have Braves tickets this year…the Ogre offered me tickets for Sunday’s game. I think Darryl went.

Going to be busy for a few days…we really shouldn’t have gone to SC with all there is to do. I cashed in MyCokeRewards points for a Nike gift certificate, as Will says he needs new spikes. Will order them after we get his size. Should be able to get a decent pair. Also need to reorder SI…my subscription is about to run out.

Haven’t been doing a good job on the van’s MPV lately, since I rarely am the one to get gas.
