Interesting travel story. (Eagle 5)

It was . My wife took two weeks. We did a sleeper car from Atlanta to DC and rode coach the rest of the time. In Atlanta we did Ikea and went to the Melting Pot. Train pulled out late at 1 am. First night in Boston we had a hotel. Got a rental in Boston and drove to Maine. Got a hotel there and went exploring the area and eating lots of cheap seafood. Did the Portland Naval Observatory first day. Did some driving around, ate lots of lobster and went out on lobster boat. Drove from Maine to Prince Edward Island. We had two story AirBnB to ourselves. We got on a whale tour but never saw any whales. Captain let all of us fish and everyone left with mackerel that the crew cleaned for us. I mentioned that my son had earned his motorboating merit badge and he let both my son and daughter take the helm. We saw lots of other sea life. We took the mackerel back, cooked it and ate it for supper and lunch the next day. PEI is home to Anne of Green Gables homes. Three of them. We explored the Island. We went to the beach. Water was surprisingly warm. We also made dirt shirts by submerging T-Shirts into the red sand until they were stained. Again lots of Seafood. Then it was back to Maine. We had an AirBnB on the return trip. We explored various things, ate even more seafood and ended up in Kennebunkport. I got some Reagan-Bush merch there. We returned to Boston and had a hotel. We did a self directed scavenger hunt there. Turned in the rental and took uber to the Amtrak terminal. Returned to Atlanta, did the Ikea again and picked up the car and drove 3 hrs home to TN. Our Disney trips are very nice vacations. Our non-Disney stuff are adventures. This was an adventure.

Now this summer was Texas another adventure complete with our van breaking down in Austin on a Sunday afternoon. I will spare everyone.
I stepped away from your post thinking “what a great experience for those kids too” even after the glorious experiences. Can’t imagine one going much better, great memory for all I’m sure. kudos to your wife as a planner was understated here, lol and well done!

If Todd Golden is fired, so should Stricklin

Decent amount of speculation that this was leaked to ruin Stricklin after giving Napier the attaboy.
That's what I was thinking. Comes out a day after Stricklin commits to Napier. Perhaps Boosters operatives had dirt ready to get rid of Stricklin and then maybe say see ya Billy Bozo, haha. There's enough allegations across sports teams in recent years to axe Stricklin. Sully and Holloway are only good coaches and both were hired by Foley, the rest of the coaches are Stricklin.

This is the third set of serious allegations against a head coach during athletic director Scott Stricklin's eight-year tenure.
I want Stricklin to be replaced as bad as the next guy, but allegations are just that - Nothing has been proven. Golden should be given the benefit of the doubt until all the FACTS are known.
