I went to Jacksonville over the weekend. A much needed break! My son is on the "crew" team at JU, and they had a regatta on Saturday morning. What is the crew team? It's that bunch of ivy league types who row those low to the water boats competitively.

They blocked off a road down from the university, and all the spectators could watch the race from the vantage point of a bridge.

It was a beatiful day...and I snapped a photo with my phone that didn't do the day justice...so I did a photoshop painting of it to try and gain the feel of the moment. This is my son Bradley's boat, cutting through the water, gliding past us under a bridge and into the morning mists.

We also went to the JU football game, which was awesome. JU won it in a last minute heroic effort made by the defense. WOOT! This is my beautiful wife and two of my georgeous children.
