Nostalgic

Hi All,

I have been feeling a bit nostalgic for my childhood lately so I thought I would share a couple of nostalgic pictures with you. One of the pictures is an A & W drive in. They were the the kind of restaurant that today's Sonic restaurants are modeled after. In the 70's and early 80's they almost died out entirely.

Another is a picture of the cast of the old Andy Griffith show. Barney Fife made me laugh so many times and I don't know if you remember Opie, but he is the famous director Ron Howard, who also played Richie Cunningham on Happy Days! This show brought me and my family hours of laughs as a kid.

And finally there is a picture of an old time coke fountain machine. When I was a kid I had a cousin who lived in Greenville, SC. They had a drug store down there that had a real old soda fountain and would serve Cherry Cokes. Not the kind you get today, back then, they would fill up a glass with Coca Cola and then add Cherry syrup to it for flavor.

Ahh, those were the days. I can go back to aging gracefully now!

Have a fun day all!

My Little Gem Is Here!

August 16th our newest little family Gem arrived! His name is Aiden James and he weighs in at an amazing 8 lbs, 7 ozs. The little guy is something to hold and behold! Both mom and baby are fine and here are a few pictures to share! I may look like a goofy old man, but I'm a happy goofy old man!

Coming Soon

Hi All,

I am exercising my bragging rights as a grand parent to announce that any day now, I will be a grandfather once again. My daughter is due any time now and may even be induced over the next day or two! Please join me and my family in prayer as we wait for the arrival of Aiden the newest family member!

Thanks so much!
