I didn’t even get accepted to UGA in 1988! I clowned my way through HS with a 2.8 and took the SAT still buzzing and no sleep from an all night drinking party. I had to spend a year at KSU and buckle down and get serious and then transfer in.
I have a Husq lawn tractor but did buy a Ryobi electric push mower for the details around inside corners and in between beds and other places I can’t get with the tractor.
I was a Head Coach for the McEachern middle school program when AJ came through. When he was a 6th grader, I had the combined 6th and 7th grade team. AJ had played RB at Due West pound ball and his dad Mike was not happy at first when I wanted to try him at QB. I wanted a smart player with ball handling skills to run my offense. AJ was mature beyond his age and understood the importance of precise footwork and play fakes needed to make the offense as effective as possible. We actually lost to Harrison in the playoffs his 6th grade year but we won the championship beating Lassiter his 7th grade year. I had his younger brother Andrew quite a few years later when I had the 8th grade team and won the championship with him at QB also. Beat Pope in 2002 and they had TJ Yates at QB.
Just about to leave Exhuma Cays in the morning .We were here 3 months ago for a week and came back a week ago. Hideaways is a pretty good place for a family. They have a small pool and Kayaks for use, etc.. Of course, there are plenty of nice homes for rent through VRBO, etc.. just depends on on how much you want to spend on accommodations.

We are in a house called Hummingbird House (Shows as a spot on Google Maps when looking about 5 miles to the west of Georgetown.) Nice sized home sitting up on a ridge with a wrap around porch. We have had view of Masters Harbour and Salt Flats depending on which side of the house you are on.

I would recommend staying with a few miles of Georgetown on either east or west side. You will be on either end numerous times over a few days or week.

Beaches to chill and lay out:

Jolly Hall Beach- my personal favorite. We did this one twice this week.

Tropic of Cancer Beach- almost identical to Jolly Hall but a little bigger crescent.

Hoopers Bay, Pretty Molly, Coco Plum, and a handful more easily assessable beaches. We hardly shared the beach with anyone else. Jolly Hall had two other little groups today spread out 100-200 yds apart.

We did 2 boat ride tours this week. One harbor tour of 5 hours that stays around Greater Exuma and Stocking Island. We went to Chat n Chill on stocking for a few minutes but had our guide take us down a mile or so to a new floating bar for lunch called Twin Connections. Very cool concept and good burgers and hot dogs cooked on a grill.
The other tour was up the western cays to Compass Cay. It was about 76 miles up and back down another 76 round trip. Mainly cruising through the chain of cays and stopping here and there. We stopped at Staniel Cay Yacht Club Club for lunch.

Boating tours, fishing, jet skiing, and hanging out at the beaches is really what you do here .The beaches are so nice and the water so calm and beautiful that you really hate to leave to go clean up for dinner.

I have seen a lot of beaches over my life in various places including Kauai, Maui, etc.. Nothing compares to the playground of water around Exuma Cays. If the bluest beautiful, calm, shallow water is your hope, this is the place.
West Cobb was my home as well. McEachern Class of 88. I grew up 1/4 mile from Wild Horse Creek Park. Demographics have changed so much in 40 years.
Field of Dreams is about as American as can be. Should be on there.
My daughter was Clark’s and Burn’s standard bearer at the 2024 Friday round of the FedEx Cup at Eastlake. He and Billy Horshel (Sunday round) were actually the nicest ones to her and the walking scorer she has had over the last 2 years.

She had Keegan Bradley in last years Sunday round and he never interacted with her or the walking scorer. There is a little bit of time off camera waiting on tee boxes. Clark would ask them if they were hanging in there and make them feel part of the group. Mainly at the cooler where they all grab a Powerade or water. Brief but he interacted. Bradley acts like a snobby country clubber to good to interact with the help.
You are right. That’s what I was thinking about but called it a spur.
That old boy would have scooted right by you trying to get the hell back to a pond. Close to the water and it could be a different story.
Most of them have to stop on spurs to allow another train to pass. The trains have gotten so long now that they will have over 100 cars attached. Many of those spurs happen to be in areas with several crossings.
She says men can’t discuss this with other men or you are creeps. Kind of like calling you a racist for discussing statistical facts about violent crime. Attempting to censor with shame. Doesn’t work as well as it did 10 years ago. She is having issues with that. She is a leftist bitch raising another generation of weak, leftist kids who will be as useless as her.
It is just a colossal offensive choke job. A 1-2 game slump at the plate is understandable. This complete 180 over 4 games with everything on the line sours the entire season and makes it seem that we feasted on uninspired pitching efforts. It’s like Texas and Oklahoma figured out the sweet spot is to just throw 92-94 mph fastballs about belt high. Completely illogical but somehow it has managed to shut us down.
I arrive at Exuma at 2:00 tomorrow. Looking forward to catching tomorrow’s game after getting groceries and a few hours of beach time!
Maybe we have served our time in batting hell and will get back to raking.
I miss the days in the 80s when guys would just try to hit the ball in the holes. Line drives, etc. just the art of hitting the ball into play. Bat on ball. Everyone has a dead pull swing across baseball, MLB down to HS.
This is a colossol choke through 4 innings of an elimination game. We look like we are going against Maddux and Glavine the last 2 games.
