Rome If You Want To....

Or was it Roam that the B-52's meant?? Either way, I suppose that TJ and I were Rome-ing this weekend as we were in Rome, Georgia for an International Bowhunters Organization tournament. TJ's new hobby is shooting in these competitions, and since I am always up for a road trip, I usually tag along with him. I get to meet really interesting people from all over the US and spend a day or so outside enjoying the springtime weather, so it's something nice to do together. Tommy did not make the trip with us because chasing a 3 year old around an area with flying lethal projectiles is not my idea of a good time. But, little man got a trip to both sets of grandparents, so I doubt that he even noticed that we were gone.

Since pet boarding is expensive, and because our hotel happened to be pet friendly, Cracker did get to go with us. I swear, I am always amazed at the attention that this dog gets whenever we take him out in public. People are constantly coming up to see him. On this trip, people were actually asking to make pictures with him! It's almost like walking around with a celebrity. A hairy, slobbering, goofy celebrity...

Superstar!!

In all, it was a great weekend. A big thanks to Sissy for transporting Tommy to Troy for us, and both sets of grandparents for keeping him. I know that he had a great time!
