Twelve years ago Will and Mary-Clayton were on a school trip to Florida. That's MC front left and Will front right. I was a chaperone.

We toured the Kennedy Space Center, and posed under the Saturn V rocket, the type that launched the first astronauts to the moon in 1969. Interestingly, the girl behind MC, Christine, married the guy behind Will, Caleb.

On the night of October 29, 2021 the Braves won World Series game three, taking a 2-1 lead in the best of seven series.

At 1:25 this morning MC gave birth to Shivone Elaine Murphy.

8 pounds 1 ounce, 19" head to toe.

I played golf this morning in the mist, downtown at Candler Park. Will picked up breakfast for Mary-Clayton at Chick-fil-A. It was a college football Saturday. Georgia Tech played downtown at Grant Field, losing its homecoming game to Virginia Tech.

Number one Georgia beat arch-rival Florida in Jacksonville.

Saturday night the Braves hosted the Astros

in game four of the World Series.

NLCS MVP Eddie Rosario made the game-saving catch. 

Dansby hit the game-tying home run,

then Soler followed with the go-ahead home run.

Kyle Wright, who spent almost the entire season at AAA Gwinnett, delivered a solid pitching performance.
