Lane, Hannah, Baby Collins, Chipola Basketball and JAGUARS!!

We drove to Marianna Florida (central standard time) Friday after school, met with Bill, Joan, Lane, Hannah and Collins Elizabeth at the local Sonny's BBQ (after we checked into our hotel, AA ordered Cobb salad, I had my usual pork plate and Ford had the beef brisket sandwich).

Ford fell as he was walking from the car to the restaurant door, scraping up his arm, knee and head pretty bad. He didn't see a trailer next to our car and banged into it. AA saw him fall and roll, so thankfully he did not break anything! He was sore and bloody but handled it very well, most likely it was because he can't see out of his left eye very well (surgery is scheduled for 1/30/23).
We continued visiting with Joan and Bill, then off to bed!
Saturday morning, had breakfast in the hotel with Joan and Bill, then found out that Butch and Stephanie were driving to see us and visit. We met at Sonny's BBQ (best in town), had a nice visit, then back to the hotel lobby to visit. They were not staying for the game (they went to the one in Pensacola Wednesday). Great seeing them and for driving 2.5 hours just to see Ford!

Saturday afternoon, we watched Lane's Chipola College basketball team WIN! Unbelievable how they were behind until the second half. 

After the game, we met up at Beef O'Brady's (second best restaurant in Marianna) and enjoyed a noisy but delicious dinner. We watched the beginning at Beef O’Brady, Marianna FL. So bad, far behind. 

By half time, watching in our hotel room, Fairfield Marriott with Bill and Joan. Slowly Trevor Lawrence managed to move forward and score. Four interceptions was terrible. 17-0 at 2nd quarter. Kick off, Jaguars lost the ball. 27-7 at half time. We could not believe the touchdowns and drives in the 3rd quarter! Jaguars 15 yard penalty, then Chargers miss a field goal. Joey Bosa slams his helmet down when he didn't get a penalty on Jags he wanted. Amazing that Trevor Lawrence came back from 27-0 score to win 30-31! NFL's 3rd greatest comeback! Great times for Jacksonville (and all the fun after when Trevor, wife and about 20 others went to the Beaches Waffle House).

Sunday, Bill and Joan left very early, so we enjoyed breakfast and were on the road by 10:00 a.m. EST. We picked up Ginger at Carolyn's and were home by 3:30 p.m.
