Musing on the Premier of “Cold and No Bleachers. Morgan County @Greene County.”

Okay. I didn’t take enough pictures of the defense. I didn’t take enough pictures of my daughter. I took too many pictures of Coach Huff. 

These were some of the observations by my children after watching my video repose of the Bulldogs visit to Greene County Friday night.

Morgan County won 35 – 7.

Yay.

Regarding the complaint about lack of defensive pictures, there were very small risers on visiting side because the stadium was undergoing renovations.

I shot what I could ground level.

So there are photos of Astro Turf.

No lanes on the track.

The band sitting on folding chairs.

Cheerleaders.

I guess I got a lot of Coach Huff. But I thought I was getting him and Coach Malone.

Go Figure.

Basically whatever was on the sidelines —  I got great shot of.

And then my son. It was his last regular season game for high school. EVER.

Great season Bulldogs.

Can’t wait to head to Augusta for first round of playoffs Friday night.

Are you going?

Musing on kicking a field goal. Or just kicking a ball over my garden.

Missouri to enter the SEC. I wonder if they need a field goal kicker?

 

We had old friends from Atlanta out to visit.

The kind of friends that you can’t remember whether it’s been four or two years since you last saw each other.

But our children have no clue who each other is….

This is what happens. Moms and Dads are inside having catching up having fun and outside the kids are looking like this.

 

Then I noticed my son was kicking a football through the V in the pecan tree.

I thought it was time for  me to try.

“Good grief Mom. If you kick it there, it will go through the window.”

I was worried about hiring my knee.

 

I thought it was time for me to show him how it's done.

 

 

It went about 10 feet. It didn’t quite make the first row of lettuce.

I think I could do lots better with practice.

But there are friends I need to go chat with.

Have to leave the hunt for a kicking scholarship for another day.
