Less than 45 days

It's hard to believe we are less than 45 days until football season. I have mixed feelings about this. I love football season, the games & the tailgating. There is something about getting up early, hustling around packing things up, then getting over to Louie's and waiting 30 minutes. But it's all good and makes for a fun day. But, football also means the end of summer. It seems that as soon as football starts, the week-ends are shot and before you know it, it's October and time to close the pool, then its Thanksgiving, Christmas, and then we're back to the god-awful months of Jan.& February. Anyway, it will be here sooner than we think.

My friend Russell Smith with the Make-A-Wish foundation called yesterday. We have a M.A.W. kid (actually 17) who's wish was for season tickets to Clemson Football and a parking pass. Well, we have secured the tickets and pass but he wants to do a little more. He is trying to put together a tailgating package for her and her family. A tent, a table, possible picnic basket, car flags, etc. basically anything Clemson or Tiger Paws. I am donating a tablecloth. So to all you tailgaters if you have anything left over you want to donate, please let me know and I will forward the information over to Russell. Also, the other good news, if her health allows, she will be enrolling at Clemson next year.
