I really love my blog and feel bad for not writing more, but school and work have kept me pretty busy. That is not an excuse, but rather the truth. There is always enough time in the day, but sometimes it gets hard to manage it all.
So here's a quick post about our Fourth of July.
---
Matt and I visited Charleston a few years ago and loved it. So when Matt saw that the Dave Matthews Band was playing in Charleston and when we figured we might never be closer to Charleston, we jumped at the chance to go. Not to mention, they were playing on the Fourth of July at an outdoor minor league baseball field, too many neat things for us to pass up. (the picture is of us by the battery)
So we made the five hour drive up the night before and got up early
the next day to explore. We walked around the College of Charleston (see picture to the right) and ate lunch at Jestine's (we were actually in line before they opened, Matt's good idea, since after we were done eating the line was already around the block). We had a delicious variation on the BLT (fried green tomato, instead).
We found a place that was playing live music and stopped in. While we were there we struck up a conversation with the people sitting next to us. Turns out they were heading to the concert too. They quickly saw Matt was a UF fan (with the hat and all), and although they were serious University of Tennessee fans (they live in Knoxville) we became friends and wound up sitting on the baseball field with them at the concert.
So it has been a busy few months. I'm going to try and be better at writing, at least for myself, this blog has been a great cataloging of our lives here in Gainesville. We've really done a good job of seeing a lot of our town and the surrounding parts of Florida.
