College football today

Lucy,

Mom and I are excited to ride over to College Station early this morning with Kyle, Emily, and Kyle's parents (Vinny and Roesanne) to catch up with you and show the Cazzetta's Kyle Field and the full Aggie experience.

Here are some of the games we are keeping an eye on today. 




See you soon,

Dad

20th anniversary of Payne Stewart's death


Lucy May,

The golf and sport's world lost a good one twenty years ago yesterday. Learn about Payne Stewart here.

This letter from Payne's daughter really says it all and makes me think about how blessed I am to have you and your sisters in my life. 

I love you,

Dad

Happy Friday - Beautiful day in Austin - Stay Fit!



Some pics from London. Taylor tells me he visited Lloyd's of London yesterday, simply known as Lloyd's in the industry. The company was founded in 1686 and (I believe) is the oldest insurance company in the world.

Westlake has their 50th Homecoming tonight. Complete sellout and we do not have tickets. We are going to Empty Nester Tailgate, and I hear Kyle's Uncles and Aunts (Heather, John, Bernie and Bernadette) may all be joining us.

Saturday games:

Tarheels at Va Tech @ 2:30PM CT
Kentucky at UGA @ 5:00PM CT
Yale at Richmond @ 5:00PM CT
Kansas at UT @ 6:00PM CT
Texas A&M at Ole Miss @ 6:30PM CT

Sal & T leave for London and Amsterdam; Bailey makes a comeback - Stay Whole!


Hey Lucy,

How's your week? We are still licking our wounds around here from the Westlake loss, the Georgia loss, the Texas loss, the Yale loss, and the Aggie loss. Gee whiz, what a weekend! At least the (idle) Tar Heels did not lose.

I went to Chap Club with Coach Dodge this morning, just to make sure he is in good spirits and to see if he needs me on the sideline for Homecoming. Our opponent is 4-2, so it should be a good game. I hear it is a massive sellout. 50th Westlake Homecoming.

Sal and T leave tonight for Europe! Excited for them.

Bailey had a bit of a tough weekend but seems to be doing better after getting some new meds. Above, she is sporting her new harness, something Emily found out would be better for her trachea. 

Long live Bailey,

Dad

Great ATL weekend with Sal and T - Go Braves and Make it a Great Monday!

Did you know Ga Tech has 4 Nattys in football?


Bobby Dodd Stadium - downtown ATL - great stadium for college football . . .
Iconic Ramblin' Wreck - 'What's the good word?' . . .
Great seats thanks to ADSK SVP Scott Herren (Ga Tech grad)

Golf at CCC Crabapple with T . . .

. . . and Fast Eddie.
Braves go up 2-1, so Sal & T hit the margaritas on Sunday night to celebrate, or were they sad that we left town?
