Schaeffer's First Football Game

Schaeffer had his first full, non-scrimage football game on Saturday. He is #1. No, seriously, his jersey number is #1. But he did have a great game. Playing quarterback on many snaps, he had a beautiful pass completion (RARE in youth football), a touchdown saving tackle, and a 60 yard touchdown run (last week in the jamboree he had a 40 yd. TD). On one run he was slammed out of bounds and got the wind knocked out of him (thus the pic of him on his back on the sideline). Way to go, Schaeffer! Of course, football is a team sport. So way to go, Indians. We are rooting for you!

Schaeffer's Football Camp Photos

Thanks to Coach Tommy Jones and the coaching staff and players of Lumpkin County High School for a great football camp this week. It was hot and sweaty—just like football in July should be. After all, this is SEC country. If you can't take the heat, join the Big 10 or PAC 10. Bring on September!

Panama City Beach

This past Monday and Tuesday I took the big two with me Panama City Beach, where I was to teach the large group meeting for the Campus Outreach Beach Project. We had a great time with the students, on the beach and at Shipwreck Island water park. Short trip. Great time.

Art in the Park

Nini is in town, and this afternoon we took her to "Art in the Park" just off the downtown square here in Dahlonega. Artists set up booths, show and sell, as well as local farmers with fresh produce, each Saturday in Hancock Park.

Pics from Our Monteagle Vacation – June 2010

Here are some pictures from our recent trip to Monteagle, TN, on the Cumberland Plateau. It was a wonderful two weeks of rest, fun, hayrides, seeing friends, hiking, playing in swimming holes, jumping off of waterfalls, ruling nine square, napping in the hammock, watching 24 on Netflix, eating at Papa Rons, etc. You had to be there to understand. Maybe the pics will help. :)

Cookout and Float Trip on the Chestatee River (Pictures)

These are pictures from the recent Creekstone cookout and float trip on the Chestatee River that flows through town. Not sure why a picture of our house got in the mix. Anyway, thanks to Bruce Johnson and crew for organizing a great time on the river!
