Weekend Wrap

So this weekend was good fun….Im sure there will be some pictures to follow, as Win was the official photographer for the most part this weekend. Emmalee showed us around The Dozier Center on Saturday, and me, Win, John Marc, RP, Ryan and Lori were all quite impressed, the place certainly spared NO expense when it came to decking the place out in the finest of everything. Flat panel HD screens at every turn, acoustics that would make sound nerds drool, and electronics in the recording studio and video facility that are awesome. Em had to get back to work, and left us to our own devices, and trusted us not to break anything. I was tempted to touch stuff, but managed not to. Auntie Mels and John came as well, and we spoke for a while before Win and I headed back to the neighborhood.

Sunday was of course the Allman Bros./Derek Trucks Band show-A great time was had by all. Me, Win, Emmalee, Ryan, Lori and Jarrett all piled into my Jeep and headed down to the parking lot to tailgate, and cookout, etc. A friend of Jarret’s and I from CNN stopped by as well-The rain came, and came down hard. The downpour lasted for a good while, and we were soaked from head to toe-Derek Trucks was….well, brilliant, as one might imagine. The ABB were great as always, and played some good stuff. The mud was deep, and people were doing mudlsides all the way down the hill, I talked Emmalee out of giving it a try. Tired, damp, beat, and exhausted we headed home, and Win headed out this morning. And now we work. Fun times.

Dad, I didn’t see the Skins Saturday, and haven’t had a chance to listen to Joe’s post game comments. I hear neither the play OR what Joe had to say was pretty. Must have been an ugly performance Saturday night……
