Week in Tallahassee

Our plan to spend the week in Tallahassee worked out very well. We had the opportunity to attend the FSU Women's Volleyball match. Frank knows much more about volleyball than I since he watched and supported Allison and Andrea play pre-college. Unfortunately, they lost. Those gators...such cheaters!

We took a few days off from FSU sports, but were able to get out and play golf on Thursday. While Southwood is a nice course, it is very tricky! The first cut of rough is very thick and it is very easy to lose balls...even the bright colored ones. I shot a 98, which I consider pretty good given the conditions of the course, the weather and lovebugs.

Since there was minimal interest in tailgating on Saturday and since Rick & Joanne were kind enough to offer us their tickets in the box, we decided to skip tailgating. So, we walked over to see the Ruggeri's in their garnet and gold condo and were able to catch up with them (Tim & Jamela too). It was great seeing them before their head off to Provence for a few weeks.

We were able to get to the stadium in plenty of time to get a cold drink and step outside to watch the opening 'ceremonies' and flyover. Look carefully and you'll see the stealth bomber!
All in all, it was a nice week in Tallahassee!
