2012
It was the day that PA got hit with rain, rain and more rain. Flooding, etc. We thought we were going to get kicked off of the beach early, but the rain didn't roll in until dinner time. But when it did, it was the weirdest cloud I've ever seen. It reminded me of something that should be in the upcoming movie "2012".

Eagles Training Camp
ON OUR WAY TO EAGLES TRAINING CAMP
We went to the Eagles Training Camp this morning. Can't say it would have been my pick to do at 7am Saturday morning. But it was the worth the effort. Those of you who don't know, the Eagles run their training camp out of Lehigh University. It's a free thing, so if your kids are into football its good cheap fun. When you enter into the area, they hand you a ticket. It's basically a lottery system. Between 7-9am they hand you a ticket on the way in. Then they basically pick 200 numbers to go to an autograph tent. We went with the "Zuromski's", Not one of us had a winning ticket. Then....there was a guy that basically looked at the boys and said, what's this number say. Is it a winner? I was looking at the guy, thinking what kind of guy is this. He has a winning ticket and he's rubbing it in to 4 boys who desperately want to go to the autograph tent. When Stephen looked at him and said yes you have a winning number. He handed him the ticket!!! I thought they were going to jump out of their skin. One ticket got all 4 boys and one adult through the line. They line you up like cattle and shuffle you through. But they ended up with about 13 signatures all together. They got a few afterwards as well. They said it was the best day of their lives. ; )
It's gonna be a great day!
The beginning of practice.
Signatures.
Signatures.
Signatures.
And more signatures.
It was a successful day!
