The Ups and Downs

Yesterday was one of those up and down days. But let me be quick to point out the the "ups" were far greater than the "downs." The Bullies lost a heart-breaker to the big blue machine (Kentucky Wildcats). We were up by three with under 6 seconds to play. UK hit a free throw to cut it to 2, then missed the second free throw on purpose. They secured the rebound took a shot and missed, but were able to throw up a shot at the buzzer. The replay indicated that the ball left the shooter's hand with one tenth of a second left in regulation. That shot sent the game into overtime. UK ultimately won it by a point. MSU failed to get the win in regulation by a tenth of a second and lost in overtime by a point. Can't get much closer than that. So much for the "down" part of yesterday.

Now, the "ups." I had a great day of worship, fellowship and discipleship with the Highland Drive church family. The worship music was inspiring, the fellowship was sweet and the Word of God was timely. Jan and I closed out the day by enjoying a party with our small group. Lot's of laughter, food and fun. On another note, it was great to see some former Highland Drivers in the service. Joe and Stacy Brown were back for a short visit, as was Kyle Keenum.
