For the 7th straight year Flounder and I will be headed to the CITC held this MLK weekend in Berlin, Ohio.....Josh M. has joined us for the past 3 years and we are bringing Slicer along this year for shits and giggles....we are leaving the Beaverdam Truck Plaza very early
morning and will be there for the 1st game Saturday....

Josh will be covering each game on the RC with updates and live interviews....in the past he
has really stepped up his game and has given some great interviews....while he is doing that, Flounder and I will be sitting up in our penthouse loge giving our thoughts on the sights,
sounds, and most definitely the great food that is dished out....we will let Slicer stay back
at the hotel soaking in the hot tub, waiting for our arrival back late Saturday and Sunday
nights.....

The Classic in the Country is a GREAT venue for girls basketball...the crowds are large and
the excitement is unreal with the quality of play throughout the weekend. So if you aren't
able to make it to Berlin this weekend, keep checking back for all the scoop.....thanks RM

It's been an active few days for me, so, can't wait to hit the tub.....I love this job,

[Rocketman]

We are ON OUR WAY!.....ETA in Berlin, 9:30am which should just give us enough time to check in to our hotel before
heading to the CITC...first game up is Convoy Crestview vs. Ironton....

I believe that the coach of Ironton is one of Dabbelt's favorites while the Lady Knights should prove formidable.
We've got Flounder behind the wheel while I am relaxing in the lap of luxury in the back...check back often for
updates all this weekend......RM

Haha! Love it!

Can't wait to hear the music, I have to say.

We arrived at the CITC a little late after having a small glitch checking in at our B&B this morning....We had
reserved a 3 bedroom suite with hot tub, but when we arrived the innkeeper told us that our ensuite was a 2 BR.
Slicer said that she was going to stay back and allow us boys to watch the games today on our own...she said that
she would be ready to go out when we return....we're planning on attending Tom Jenkins party this evening after
the conclusion of the last game....he's always wanted to meet the infamous Slicer, so tonight's his chance.....

The food smells wonderful and lunch will be served starting during halftime of the second game today....Flound has
always been partial to the chicken and noodles and today should be no different.....

[Rocketman]

Got a text from Slicer and she has a little problem back at the B&B....seems she added some "bubble bath" to the
hot tub and now it's bubbling over the top!....asked her how much she poured in and she wasn't exactly sure...the
innkeeper said not to worry, it happens all the time....they just shut off the jets and the bubbles disappeared.
they will just drain and refill it....what is it about bubbles that gets women all in a lather?....we told Slicer
not to worry and that we would be back after the third game to check in on her....RM

Crestview pulling away....Buaer putting up some good numbers today. 26 points thus far???

[Rocketman]

1st game is in the books.....

The weather is much, much better than last year.....seems like the hot tub situation has been resolved.
Slicer has ordered a couple of movies for later. Flounder and I are headed down from our perch high above the
Perry Reese Center to get a better idea on the identities of some of the people we see sitting down on the floor.
This area is usually reserved for college coaches, but Flound seems to think that their might be others who we
need to check out.....

And now a little Aretha before the start of the second game between Eastmoor and Revere

Bubbles always cause me trouble-- I just love slickery!

Well then, slick it is.....
Btw, Flounder says he's bringing back some of that decadent caramel/chocolate dessert...

[Rocketman]

Uh oh....just got a call from the B&B....they had sent the Amish pool boy to drain and refill the hot tub...it's been an hour and he's not back....they called the room and no answer...I told the woman not to worry. He's in good hands.....lol

[slice slice baby]

No worries....just being sure he had a clean deck.
