Some last minute Americana

As I get set to leave tomorrow, and in an effort to counteract the recently recurring Jim Croce "Time in a Bottle" dreams, I have been taking in as much Americana as I can: NASCAR, cherry pie, coffee, pizza, 80's Country music (Alabama, Oak Ridge Boys, Garth Brooks, George Strait, Reba, Randy Travis), cheese burgers, Miller Lite, and finally some Friday night high school football followed by Ted Drewes Frozen Custard.

Was proud to stand with my hand over my heart during the national anthem, listening to my son play the trombone, with my beautiful wife by my side, knowing it would be some time before I return, but grateful that I am sad to leave.
