WHY DO I BLOG?
I decided to grab another cup of coffee and sit down and write my blog on a rainy Saturday afternoon. As I sat down in my comfortable recliner and contemplated on what to blog about, I asked myself “Why do I write a blog each week?” Before I began writing this week’s blog I looked back over the 300 blogs that I have written and … Continue reading WHY DO I BLOG?

I’ve had many highlights in my career broadcasting high school sports on Q-92, but last Thursday, my heart grew a little bit bigger. I spent the day with the LQPV Boys Volleyball team, and it was, without exaggeration, one of the best experiences of my broadcasting career. As many of you know, I live for high school playoff season. There’s a special magic in the … Continue reading A BUS RIDE

Now, I’ve been to NYC a few times, but I honestly couldn’t tell you if I ever had an authentic slice there. I … Continue reading A SLICE OF PIZZA HEAVEN
PROMS, PRAYER AND LOTS OF MILES
I love being busy. It’s invigorating, and I get so much joy out of being involved in so many different things. As a “people person,” I truly thrive when I’m surrounded by others. This past week was a whirlwind—full of fun, though my pocketbook certainly took a hit! I was on the road every day, putting serious miles on the Equinox. That meant filling up … Continue reading PROMS, PRAYER AND LOTS OF MILES

This past Saturday, we attended our grandson Zane’s prom at Foley High School. Zane and his date, Amelia, looked absolutely amazing—as did all the attendees!

We aren’t done yet, though; next week we’ll be heading to Montevideo to attend our granddaughter Adelyn’s prom.Social media was overflowing with pictures all … Continue reading A SEASON OF PROMS AND MEMORIES
