After work Friday, Leah and I mounted up for the 8-hour haul, picked up Deric on the way. We were the first lucky guests to sleep in the Laniers' beautiful and charming home in the historic Seminole Heights neighborhood of Tampa. Cayla and Tony fed us as if we were royalty, and were also amazing tour guides. We even got to drive through a part of Tampa they had never been through....and probably wouldn't mind if they never went back.
We spent Saturday afternoon and evening with other dear friends, Carly & Francis, and our gracious secondary hosts, Andrea and John. Gator and Bulldog fans shared the same fate, but we had a blast.
Sunday was game day. It was my first NFL game, and who better to watch it with than your two Best Men. After taking advantage of "free" beer (TINSTAAFL, folks), we posted up in our fantastic seats 11-rows up from the end zone (thanks Cayla!) and watched a helluva football game. Althought the Pack lost, I still had a blast. There were a few Buccaneer fans that were plain ugly at us Packer fans (and fellow Buc fans), but I guess after all those rough years and only one Super Bowl to show for it really does bring out the worst in people. Let's not even get started on Tweedledum and his drunk wife, Tweedledee....... ("SAAAAAAAAACK!!") I'm sorry I don't have any pictures...we forgot our camera in Daphne, and Tony forgot to bring his as well. But, here Aaron Rodgers scrambling to a Tampa Bay zombie.
The weekend went by way too fast, but we were thankful to spend it with our amazing friends. If you are ever thinking about a weekend trip to the Tampa Bread & Breakfast - do it; they are amazing hosts.
Keep an eye out for future posts.....something's-a-brewin' in Daphne, AL. Cheers
