100th Post

I took the last week of my Spring Break at Highland. I got there on Thursday afternoon and we turned around and headed for the Sommet Center in Nashville. We saw the Los Angeles Kings, the team with the worst record in the Western Conference, beat the Predators 4-1!! In this picture Carrie and her Grandpa Rilea walk back toward Carrie's office after the tour of her place.
On Monday night, I got to play on Carrie's intramural hockey team. Can you believe they made Carrie play goalie with a team full of guys? She wouldn't let me do it but actually came away without any injuries and made some great saves!
On Saturday night we headed over to the gym for the KY-TN Music Festival final Performance. Then on Sunday we shopped the afternoon at Opry Mills after Carrie's 5 1/2 hour Strategic Planning meeting Sunday morning/ afternoon. As you can see here, Wednesday we had 2-4 inches of rain fall! There was some flooding in Carrie's basement. This is her backyard.
I managed to get out during the week while Carrie was at work and get in 3 different serve practices. When I played yesterday afternoon in Collegedale, my serves seemed to be improving! Hopefully soon Carrie and I will get to play tennis and she can try out her birthday present.

As well as the game on Thursday, March 13, we also got to go a week later on Thursday, March 20, to see the team with the best record in the NHL, the Detroit Red Wings, beat Nashville 6-3. The second game was a sellout and was very intense and a good time! Just accross the street from the Sommet Center, home of the Nashville Predators.A view of the crowd and the arena from the ice before the Red Wings game on the 20th.The Zamboni's made their rounds between the 1st and 2nd periods.
A view from our seats.A giant sabre-toothed tiger flying through the arena during one of the intermissions.Next to the ice after the game on the 13th.One of the many fights we saw during the 2 games. I stayed at Highland for 8 days and had a great time with Carrie in the evenings. We also got out to see a movie on Tuesday and ate supper out with Chadd and Nickie on Wednesday. I also got to watch tons of recorded and live NBA basketball! Carrie got to Collegedale for the weekend about 6 hours after I got back. She finally got to see Son Rise today for the first time!
