Hunker it down, ONE MORE TIME!

Cloud Nine, Bulldog Heaven
Sally, Emily, Lucy. Take a few minutes to watch this inspiring video. A Letter For Larry written to UGA's Larry Munson, the Dawgs' legendary radio broadcaster, from his longtime broadcast partner Loran Smith. It starts, "Larry Munson, Cloud Nine, Bulldog Heaven", which is exactly where I imagine Pop is hanging out these days! Read the wiki page and you will see Larry was an Army doc, so Pop and Larry are getting along great. Be sure to scroll down to the Famous Calls section and read the scripts from some of Munson's classic calls. Goose bumps for sure. Come on you Georgia Bulldogs, keep the magic alive against unbeaten Mizzou today!

Lu to ACL - Parents Gone Soft


Andres Gonzales and Kristin

We are looking forward to having PGA player Andres Gonzales and his wife Kristin rent our pool house for a few months this winter. Andres will be training in Austin and working with his swing coach (Ann Marie) at ACC. Here's a great article that gives you a sense of his personality. He is a fan favorite on the tour!

A man and his truck equals strong

I heard Chevrolet's new Silverado truck add this morning taking Lucy to school. With the music from Nashville's Will Hoge in the background the voice overlay went something like this: 
A man and his truck. 
A man and his truck and his 13 year old daughter.
A man and his truck and his 13 year old daughter who had a bad day in school.
A man and his truck and his 13 year old daughter and boys who are mean, and teachers who are not fair.
A man and his truck and a 25 minute ride home in the quietest cab we've ever built.
A man and his truck and a strong listening father who makes his little girl feel better.
Check out the song here. Somehow it just is not the same, if you replace the word truck with 'Honda Accord'. I want a truck!

Emily,

Here's a cool Austin start up that you should check out called Girls Will Be. I saw this article in the Austin Statesman about the company.

Love,

Dad
