CAROLINE AND BRANDON GET HITCHED!

Hello all,

This past weekend I made my way from my central Arkansas tornado response to Columbia, South Carolina to meet up with some of my favorite Clemson pals to celebrate Mr. Brandon Chin and Ms. Caroline Collum getting hitched!  Brandon, you are my hero.  I will continue to study your ways and hopefully learn to pull off a feat like this myself someday.  You are as solid a man as I know.  Thank you for making my dear friend Caroline so happy.  Caroline, you are on a short list of the kindest people walking on this planet or any other for that matter.  Good thing it took me the better part of a decade to graduate from Clemson.  Otherwise we never would have met.  You looked ANGELIC on your wedding day.  Then again, you look angelic everyday.  Your smile and dance moves are both contagious and we are all so lucky to have you in our lives.  Mr. and Mrs. Chin, even though your wedding dance floor was made out of concrete and brutal on my joints, I had an amazing time celebrating with you.  Thanks for having me be part of your big day.  It was a weekend I'll never forget.

I'd also like to thank the entire Clemson Crew in Columbia and Charleston for going big all weekend long.  Seeing each and every one of you all was an absolute thrill and I hope we can do it again sometime soon!  Some of my fondest memories are with you all from our undergrad days.  I was a lucky man to be part of it all with you.  You're good peoples.  Thanks for keeping me around.

I left Arkansas this morning and am currently making my way north to assess some flood damage in Minnesota/Iowa/The Dakotas....

Finally, I would like to acknowledge and thank my friend Ms. Elizabeth Ann Herring for all the work she is doing to better the lives of many individuals in need in Charleston, South Carolina.  EA has established a feeding program on the streets of Charleston which provides the homeless population every Sunday night with a home cooked meal.  This beautiful young woman is making enormous strides towards bettering the lives of many and is an example to us all.  I am so proud of your work.  You are changing the world around you.  Thank you.

The Future Is No Place To Place Your Better Days
