Tim at College!

The reason why Mom, Charlie and I didn't stay for the second half at church is because we had to leave for CCSU to visit Tim! In case some you don't know, my brother, Tim, is a freshman at Central Conn. State University in New Britain. Tim says hi to everyone!

Tim is having a hard time keeping up with the piles of studies he's been given but he has gotten it all done; it isn't easy for him. He doesn't like his courses but he's hanging in there and soon enough I think he'll find something he is interested in. Tim says that all kids do up there is drink and party but Tim has chosen to stay away from it. He has a really nice clump of friends, but unfortunately they are worldly kids and do what worldly kids do. Tim's roommate is awesome! Tom's his name and he is also is on the golf team. Here's a pic:

yea, he is a lil bit taller...haha he is huge!

He are a couple more of CCSU!!

WE LOVE YA TIM!

TIM SAID HE WOULD LOVE PRAYERS!

-Wolf Alert-

Here is a picture of our dog Meesha (she is part wolf) howling at a siren.

You envy my dog...

...CUZ IT'S SO COOL!

When our 2 other dogs bark at something, Meesha will try to bark but she can't. She sounds more like a dying dog than a barking dog.

I LOVE MEESHA!

Hey Delaney I did some more research and I thought these cars/boats were worth looking at.

Check em' out.

Then of course you need to have the Jet Ski/off road Quad.

They are only $142,000

THESE WERE NOT PHOTOSHOPED!

Delaney, quit wishing for an El Camino and be logical and get a car you can afford.

It doesn't look to nice but I'm sure it'll start up.

Looks pretty rusty but a lil rust can't hurt.

I know you don't like insects but worst comes to worst you'll have to settle with this one.

I'm not sure if you'd like the wheels but I guess you could get them replaced.

I think it can fly too but I still don't think it's worth it.

Looks more like a remote control.

No way now that I see the inside. Looks like a Hot Wheels car.

So ugly.

Well even though they are rather ugly and rusty I think you should start with something with a reasonable price. LOL those cars are only a couple mil each.

Hey remember me? Sam Kerr, the kid that abandoned his blog for months! Haha, yup it's me and I'm back. It's been a while, but I'm back and I've got some new news for ya.

THE NEWEST NEWS

WITH THE KERRS

That guy up there is my oldest bro Tim (as most of you know). Tim is going to Central Connecticut State University to play on their Division 1 Golf Team!!! It's going to be weird having Tim gone!! We're all gonna miss him...right? Lol of course we will! He will be rooming on campus which will be interesting, hopefully he'll have opportunities to share the Gospel with roommates and buddies. So be praying ahead of that!The dude with the gun on the left in my second bro, Charlie. I've been his video man during turkey hunting season. We went on many adventurous hunts! We would start off by camping out and then wake up by 3:50am our eyes barely open tromping through the woods in search of gobblers.Unfortunately we didn't have a turkey dinner on the table this season, but we captured some great memories on film.

Charlie and his buddy, Collin Riddle, have been working like dogs for the last couple of months at the Ridgewood CC for Dad. Collin is now literally officially my 3rd brother! He seems to be over every other day! This is what normally happens: Collin and I both have guitar practice on Tuesday at my house, and that same night we have Bible Study with a bunch of kids, which Collin also comes to. So, he comes over for guitar practice, goes home for a couple hours, then comes back for Bible Study, and sleeps over because he works the next day at the golf course. Tuesday isn't the only day he comes over! He sleeps over anytime if he is working the following day. Sometimes I'll be walking around a corner and there's Collin, and I'll say, "Oh hey, when did you get here and who let you in?" Yeah, Collin is now one of our best friends.Charlie got a chance to cut the green with a singles mower the other day. He did a great job controlling it until he got on the green.

...

Well, let's put it this way, Charlie will no longer be cutting greens with a singles mower. No, I'm just kidding. He cut 8 greens to perfection, not a line out of place. And Collin has also been doing a great job around the course. AHA! Time for some live updates.

LIVE UPDATES!

Dad literally just called me telling me that they (Dad, Char, and Collin) just had to chase a HUGE black bear off the course!!!!!!! They said it was by the Pro shop! This is the first time they have ever seen a black bear on the course! Hopefully the pics they got of the bear will be on here in a couple of days.

I really think we should convert the golf course to a wild animal park. I mean, goodness, you've got bears running loose, killer coyotes, and herds of vicious deer on the prowl! The main sign should read,

"ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!"

Ridgewood Golf and Game Park

As for me, I've been finishing up my school work for the year and working for Dad too, but not as much as Charlie and Collin. I'm also learning guitar which I love! My guitar teacher said that since we have done a great job so far, our next lesson (next Tuesday) will be dedicated to learning our favorite song, no matter how difficult!! I'm so psyched! I haven't decided on the song yet, but I'm looking for a good one.
Basketball this year was great! When I went to my first practice we were less than perfect, to say the least. But when we stepped out on the court we won and won! For the regular season we were had only lost one game. By the time Playoffs arrived our team was predicted to be the Champs. We flew by our first game then we found ourselves in the Semi-Finals and ended up fighting for our lives in the last quarter.

The game started like any other game, we took an early lead and kept it for a long time, but not long enough.In the final quarter with a minute on the clock our competitors made a shot to pull them ahead by 1. Then we called a time out and made a play that had a good chance of pulling us back on top, but unfortunately my teammate, Rich, missed the shot, but the game was far from over. Somehow time winded down to 3 seconds and we planned for a player to run up, set a pick on my man, and then I would run to the basket and take a shot around foul line. Well, the player who was supposed to set the pick never did! I was left scrambling to get open and by the time I got the ball and tried to shake my defender there was hardly any time left which forced me to throw up a low percentage shot that missed. WE HAD LOST!! And no one could believe it, and that made it twice as bad. But I was happy for the team that beat us because there were some of my friends on that team.

A few days later the Championship Game was played and the team that beat us won, so that was good. But the only reason I was kind of upset they won was because the coach was so intense and just plain mean. I got to play on the All Star Team and it just so happened that he was my coach! I got to see if it was true what all my friends on the Championship team said about him. WELL IT WAS TRUE!!! It was not a very enjoyable game, unfortunately.

Despite the super competitive All Star Game and the loss in the Semi's I was lucky enough to be chosen as one of the two MVP's for the league. So that was exciting and encouraging.

Summer League is coming up so I'm getting ready for that and golf has started! The golf course is better than ever so Tim and I have been going in a lot to play. It's fun and challenging playing until dark.

Let's see what's new? Well I think I've told you about me and guitar so that's covered but here's a pic.

I'm just joking.

Here's the real me.

It's been fun playing around and figuring out songs I know.

I'll give ya one last pic of us boys.

Haha, our VW Bug ROCKS!

-W A R N I N G-

FLOOD!

These pictures were taken at Southford Falls and Stevenson's Dam...

After a stunning 9 inches of rain!

Just a normal day at Southford Falls...

Or maybe not!

Remember I said it was Southford Falls not Niagara Falls

That current looks so weak...NOT!

I'm over on the left getting ready to dive in a swim upstream, no biggy.

Man overboard!

ETHAN B. IS THE MAN! (read the sign, lol)

Stevenson's Dam at its best. You can't really tell but the water was so high and rushing so fast...what can I say? It was just rediculous!

I went through that little shoot on the right and that was a pretty fun ride, jk lol

I had to include this picture just because this guy was like the highlight of our day, lol. This guy was sooooo mad at all the people who were watching the dam (he is Ethan B's hero, lol).
