Corn Holing for MS



A couple of weeks ago my oldest daughter Jennie (yellow shirt, lower left) and her husband Dave (Carolina blue upper left) hosted their annual cornholing event for MS. As always, they raised big bucks for this worthy cause. My son Andy and daughter Cassidy (stuffing their faces above) kicked some butt on the first round, but had to concede because Andy and I were due at the Band Together Event.

Off the Grid



We got to spend a week off the grid in the Shenandoah National Park on the Blue Ridge Highway in Virginia. There were thunderstorms everyday, but we were still able to hike between the storms. The Dark Hollow Falls were streaming beautifully. The wildlife was icredible! We saw a black bear inside the campground!

During the storms I finished the third book in the Twilight series and started a book about Thomas Merton.

Band Together Benefit with Rusted Root



Band Together raised $125,000 for the Lucy Daniels Center at a concert held several week ago.

The concert was held at the Lincoln Theatre in Raleigh and featured 4 renowned bands: Chatham County Line, The Rosebuds, HOBEX and Rusted Root (shown in the picture).

My son Andy and I were once again honored to be official photographers for the event which was attended by more than 2700 generous supporters.
