Good morning. ⛹️‍♀️🏀🍿 2 March 2026 I’ve been off the net for a couple of days. My wife and I drove up to Monticello, Arkansas, to watch our granddaughter play basketball. She’s with the Ouachita Baptist University Tigers, and they were up against the University of Arkansas at Monticello Cotton Blossoms. It was a good game—tight enough to stay interesting—and the Tigers pulled out the win, which means they’re headed to the upcoming tournament. The best part was the time with my daughter and granddaughter. My hearing isn’t what it used to be, and the mix of crowd noise, the band, and the cheer squad made conversation nearly impossible. When all that sound hits at once, my brain works overtime trying to sort it out, and it gets close to overwhelming. Still, just sitting with them made the whole trip worthwhile. In a few minutes I need to check on Charlie. He’s in the slammer, and I need to get over there to bail him out when they open this morning. I think they open at 0730, so I’ll call to see if he’s ready. They have to trim his nails and give him a bath before I pick him up, so it’s always smart to check ahead. If you don’t already know, Charlie is my dog—a border collie—and I call the veterinarian’s office “the slammer” when I board him there.
