Gator Update

Andy and I survived UF "Preview". He is good to go, registered for classes in the summer and fall terms. He is set to double major in Finance and Political Science and has his eyes on law school.

I forgot just how hot and humid and breeze free summer in Gainesville is and it is only going to get worse. Andy has plenty of friends starting this summer and more coming up in the Fall.

I was happy to see the memoial brick for Trish had already been laid. It was not due till June (pictures below). It is the first brick to be completed. Hopefully, the one in Baltimore will be laid by the time Matt and I get there for his lacrosse camp.

Proud Parent Posting

In the proud parent department.....Last night was Senior awards at Nova HIgh School and Andy did pretty well. He received an award for very high Advanced Placement test scores (forgot the actual distinction). They had four categories of distinction and he was in the second highest group. He also received gold cords to where at commencement for his high GPA (top 10% of his class) and silver cords for having done at least 250 hours of community service in his four years of high school.

We head up to Gainesville on May 14th for orientation, graduation is June 1st and he starts classes at UF on June 30th.

That's all for now. Chip

I promise I am still working on the cookbook....
