Week 4: Splicing Fiber Optics
I’m sure that everyone has a place that they make jokes about. For me, it’s always been Alabama. However, after going to Alabama, I think that will change. It is actually a very nice place, and my experience with Dwayne Pugh and fiber optic cables was equally as good. Dad, Mom, and I left at 8:30, and headed for Alabama. First we stopped by the famous Unclaimed Baggage store and looked around, and after buying some … Read entire article »

Week 3: Learning Life Lessons

Birthday Celebration
A couple of days before my birthday, my dad decided to have a father-son day together. We started by eating breakfast at Gardners Market, and then we walked to the courthouse and raced Hot Wheels down the ramps. By that time, we were a bit cold, so we headed to Dad’s workplace and played a computer game for a couple hours. Dad had some shopping to do, so we went over to a shoe store … Read entire article »
