The Sooners play at UTEP on Saturday night. I wish I could be there. Debbie and I enjoyed visiting UTEP in the spring of 2011. My prediction.......OU 55, UTEP 18.

Good Luck Allison

Allison begins her first day of school tomorrow in Texas. She will be teaching 3rd grade writing.

Kickoff One Week from Tonight

The Right Stuff

A true American Hero passes away today. Being a space buff I have read many books on the Apollo space program and Neil Armstrong. 1969 was a year of history. Man landed on the moon. Neil Armstrong is definitely one of the greatest Americans of all time.

Meet the Titans

We had our annual Meet the Titans last night in Columbus. The 2012 football season kicks off Thursday night at home against SE Cherokee. It's the area game of the week. GO TITANS!

Craig at Mt. Charleston

Craig at Mt. Charleston outside Las Vegas. A beautiful place to relax and take a break from the hot weather. Debbie and I visited there during Christmas break. Only a 30 minute drive from Craig's place.

Monday

I always try to keep my friends up to date on special events and holidays. Monday is National Lemonade Day! One of my favorite places for lemonade (frozen lemonade) is Silver Dollar City.

School Carnival Tuesday

Just a reminder to the kids in Columbus, the Back to School Carnival is Tuesday at 5:00 in the City Park.

National Coaster Day

One of my favorites, the Cyclone at Coney Island, New York.

School Begins Today

The first day of school begins at 8:00 this morning. Have a great school year!

Outlaw Run

The new Outlaw Run coaster being built at Silver Dollar City. I can't wait for the spring of 2013 to ride it.

Allison interviewed last week in Alvarado, Texas for a teaching position. She was selected and accepted. Only 10 minutes from where Brian and Allison live. Brian graduates from the Fort Worth Police Academy in October. A happy Allison!
