Okay, let’s not.  I am actually in Indianapolis tonight with Amanda where she has a conference and a hotel room, and where my drive to Nashville in the morning will be cut in half and hers will be non-existent!  It is a pretty sweet deal, but let’s make sure we do not tell Ben.  He would be ticked he is not coming along.

But tonight’s picture is from the Pork Festival and it is of Ben and his brother riding the dragon roller coaster together.  It was a hoot and something we still cannot stop laughing about.  And on the second ride, Ben kicked out his USMC brother for taking up too much of the car and rode alone!  It was just great to spend the day with them both.

Of course I believe that both of them will be devastated to be away from each other.  I mean Scotty is going in for a 5 year tour.  They are extremely close too, as brothers often are, and it will be an adjustment for sure.

That’s why I am thankful for these last few weeks they can be together.  Scotty’s last day of work was today, and now he has 2 weeks to do all he needs to do.  And I know that Ben is a big part of that.

Distance may separate them for a bit……but we will always be thankful that they both have the pork and the dragon to invoke those fond memories.

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
