Spent 6 hours today packing this effer, and I’ve got about the same going tomorrow….after I already drove a load down about three weeks ago. Movers? Nah…just us. We ride.

She was clearly outta my league back then. 33 years later, and she still is.

Gearing up for the Flyers/Canes tonight.

Since it’s a month away at this point, guess I should “go public”. We have sold our home of almost 29 years and are preparing to move from PA to NC. Been in this state all my life but two important things aren’t here anymore & won’t be returning - we will be much closer to them.

I’ll always love PA and will carry it with me forever. Can’t be from here without it being a big part of who you are. Needless to say, all my Philly sports affiliations will remain as they are.

Work will bring me back for a spell each month, so I’ll get a regular dose of home here while starting a new home there. That is all.

Been around a while and seen some things but I can’t remember 10 days that have been what these have in Philly sports.

That’s pretty much a wrap on the season. Been through bad ones before and we know this ends with a top 10 pick in May.

Playing a lot of Simon & Garfunkel tonight because it fits the vibe. Things are hitting me harder now

Another year notched, and things are going to be changing for me dramatically in the next few weeks. It’s gonna get weird and I’m poised to do something I’ve never done. God help me. But for now I’ll just enjoy the day I have. Cheers.

I’ve been doing sideline chains for the local HS football games for four years. This is my last season. Tonight I got to do something that I always wanted but never happened…an on field, chain stretch measurement. Dreams DO come true true!

Not sure which is worse - last night of vacation or first Monday back after vacation.

Dear supreme deity, I think that’s quite enough with the beloved octogenarians for one week. Thank you.
