Well Sunday was an awesome day that started out around a 5:30 rollout for me as I had to be at the college at 6 to help with the load in for BridgePoint Church. We set up the college auditorium and commons area each Sunday morning for two services and we both love doing our part. Nancy comes back with me at 8:30 and I usually spend an hour or so before coming back and getting ready. It was a bit nippy with temps in the low 40's as I rode my bike, but I love the exercise even at that hour.
The temps warmed up considerably by late afternoon to the upper 60's with bright sunshine and blue skies. (I did not cover my plants on Sunday night as the temps stayed in the 50's over night.) I had covered most of the plants once again on Saturday night with that being the fourth night in a row which hasn't happened in years, anyhow after my first journey to the college I uncovered them all and then hand watered them later in the afternoon. I think most of them will survive the frigid nights except for a little wind burn on the cuke and bean plants, oh well. Everything else seemed to love the cold nights that hovered around the freezing mark.
The service was awesome and we sat in on the first service while working the second one. I helped not only with greeting but in parking cars as well and then the breakdown of the road signs, cones and advisory boards after the second service started. We have an awesome group of volunteers who help put this production on each Sunday totaling some where around a hundred or more folks, some from 6 Am until they load out after the 11AM service to around 1'ish. We took off and didn't help load out this Sunday as we had plans to meet up with Dan and Carol for lunch at Pieology which is a new Pizza eatery in the Seminole City Center. I would eat there again and the pies are custom made with a reasonable price and then brought to your table. Kids love this place as they make a pie specific to their size and desires.
We got home somewhere around 1:30 then Nancy took off to shop for Eliza Faye's upcoming fourth birthday party this Saturday. Wow where did that time go? I tuned into the wild card games and whereas I'm not excited about the NFL overall for their disrespect to the flag and the anthem these games were entertaining somewhat. The Buc's division will be represented by the Saints with their win over the Panthers in a rather close game and a somewhat come from behind outing. I'm not a fan of Newton their arrogant QB but do hold some feelings for the team in general because of our part time roots in N.C.
The first game was a bore with Jax Jag's the only team from Florida making it to the next round after a lack luster win over the Bill's. They both need QB's desperately who can make plays and the next game will eliminate them as they face great QB's in Brady or Rothisberger, oh well they made the playoffs which is more than I can say for the hapless Bucs and the Dolphins. The Lightning won big in Detroit over the Red Wings after dropping two games in a row LATER
