Fun Weekend!

Hey Yall! Yeah.....I know....Frannycakes is not a good blogger these days. I want to be but seem to have a hard time putting together a post that anyone might find interesting. I know that I have vowed to do better. I meant it when I said it but you know how life goes. I would tell you that I am going to do better but you probably wouldn't believe me. I tell you what.....why don't you, my three readers, tell me what you want me to write or post about. Leave me a comment. You don't have to have a google account or anything like that. You can leave a comment and sign it with you name and just hit the anonymous button. I will be waiting.....

Last weekend we met Chris and Linley and Jamie in Atlanta for the GA Tech, North Carolina State football game. Lesley couldn't attend (so sad) because she had to study for a test on Monday (which FYI she did very well on!) and Julianne is way up north studying and enjoying cooler temps. Julianne's birthday was earlier this month and I told her we would be celebrating her birthday at the Tech football game....without her.....yes, I am cruel like that. Maeby Shea, Chris and Linley's boxer baby, came and stayed at the hotel very patiently while we enjoyed the sights. We stayed at a Hilton Suites and it was wonderful. Definitely gonna go there again.....

We rode MARTA down to North Avenue. The hotel took us to the Marta station which was a couple of miles from the hotel and then picked us up. We got there early so we could look around. It was already hot as all get out. We walked up the hill by the stadium and down to the student center. It does not seem like it could possibly be 32 or 33 years ago that Dick and I were walking around campus ready to experience life. The students all looked soooooooo...........young. Anyway, we were already starting to get soaked with sweat when we walked back down the hill to go into the stadium. We got seated around 11:30 and the sun was blazing. With no breeze. Ugh. Frannycakes held out until half time and left to go enjoy the rest of the game in the Varsity. With a slaw dog. And onion rings. With lots of grease. And a diet coke. And air conditioning. About 15 minutes later, Dick joined me. We were both completely soaked with sweat.

I think we are a jinx to Tech. Well, maybe just me. Anytime I watch a game or go to a game, they lose. Any team I watch and want to win, lose. So I have decided to eliminate sports from my activities. Only for the benefit of the teams, from the bottom of my heart.

After going back to the hotel to take a shower and changing out of wet clothes, we headed back downtown to ride around and have dinner. We all turned in early. After breakfast the next morning, we all headed in different directions to return to each of our daily lives.

Hope yall enjoy the pictures! Don't forget to leave me a comment on what you want me to do a post on.......

Later....
