AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!

OK, I'm sorry to post two Gator videos in a row. Actually wait, I'm not sorry at all, this one is so good. It truly is great to be a Florida Gator! You have to love this!

September 5th cannot get here soon enough!

If this doesn't get you pumped for football season, you're not a fan.

If you're not a Gator, you're GATOR BAIT!

Viva Baltimore!

Last weekend I made the decision that it was just time for me to get out of the city. As much as I would've liked to go to to Florida, or the Bahamas, or Fiji, that just wasn't in the budget. However a bus ticket did fit my budget. For $35 round-trip, I could go to Boston, Baltimore, D.C., or Atlantic City. Seeing as how my wonderful cousins Allison and McRae, along with my favorite little redheads Grace and Megan live in Baltimore, I figured that was a good choice.

I was even more excited to hear that on Saturday they were heading to Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania to meet up with Aunt Sally, and my cousin Tracy along with her two boys Connor and Brian. I haven't seen Connor since he was a few months old in Ocean City, and I had yet to have the honor of meeting little Brian. We had a blast, the first photo is of myself and all the little ones in the first tree house we visited at the gardens (there were 3). One of the tree houses had a see-through honey-bee hive that had the kids mesmerized for a good 15 minutes. Here's a couple more pictures from the Gardens:

It was great to see everybody and I can't thank Allison, McRae, Grace, Megan, and Weezie enough for their hospitality. I also got a chance to go into Baltimore Saturday evening and have a great dinner with my old friend Meghan, who is in grad school and is working at the Kennedy Kreiger Institue helping children who have trouble eating. We went to a Tapas restaurant called Pazo upon Allison's recommendation and it was great.

I look forward to going back to Baltimore real soon!
