Long time no post. Here's a cop-out.

It's been a while, I know, a lot has happened. I'll post soon with updates. BTW, Congratulations, Jessie, for giving birth to the 10th healthy grandson (out of now 13 grandkids)for Mom and Dad. We're glad everything went well with the delivery and that you guys are doing fine. Can't wait to come visit.
There's a lot more to report in regards to the NW Georgia Bedwells, but I'll do that soon, but for now, here's a cut-n-post for you to "get to know me better"
Later,
Scott

I got this from a friend's blog. I've never posted one of these things, but figured what the heck. You are supposed to copy the list and bold any of them that you have done. I couldn't let some go without comments (italicized)

2. Slept under the stars Many, many times in many different states. My favorite was with Melinda hidden between some sand dunes on the Florida side of Alabama Point in Orange Beach on the beach. We were awakened somewhere around 3 a.m. by some "do good" cops who warned us of people being kidnapped and even killed by doing the same thing... I figured our error was leaving the car in the parking lot instead of having someone drop us off... there's no way they could've seen us from the road, parking lot or even the beach... (yes we were married then!)
