August is County Fair Time

If you think Montgomery County is full of lawyers, doctors and dot com executives, you need to check out the Montgomery County Fair.  I love the Fair with all the livestock and 4H activities. My daughter Cara and I have been entering our photographs into the fair competition the last few years and we look forward to see all the other entries. Below are the entries from this year’s competition.

Are You Ready for Some Football

Summer is almost over and football season is around the corner. I am excited adn courious about my teams with Redskins and Fighting Irish with new coaches, new systems, and hopefully a new attitude; we will see how they work shortly, but at least some changes and hope for a rebuilding season. I just signed-up to cover the I-95 Kick-Off Classic which will feature the best high school teams from Washington DC and the WCAC conference vs. Baltimore and the MIAA conference. I have worked all-day tournaments before, but this will be a challenge with four football games in one day.
