One more Favre comeback

Regardless of what you think about Brett Favre, one has to give the guy credit for longevity and his Ripken-esque streak while playing for the Green Bay Packers. The guy was consistent, if nothing else.

So, it's fitting then when our Friday morning senior wanted to show off a little consistency of his own.

Taylor here brought with him three Favre jerseys (yes... i did razz him about whether or not he was considering getting a Vikings version of #4.... he didn't laugh). The jerseys were of three different sizes and it all came together when Taylor explained to me that he had taken his school picture with a Favre jersey on...... EVERY YEAR.

From kindergarten thru eleventh grade... ol' #4 was on his back. So today was the day to complete the streak. And we did.

That wasn't the only cool thing we did Friday, however. I did have to break my religion and make a rockin' Iowa State collage.... what I won't do for money... but I digress.

Additionally, Taylor brought his little lady with him for moral support. Interestingly... her name? Well.... Taylor, of course. She was a great help in keeping the fellas in line on this day. I got a chuckle about how the two met... Long story short... Highway 330.... girl Taylor in one car... boy Taylor in another... on the way back from watching Marshalltown in the state basketball tourney... boy Taylor and buddy Brandon spot attractive blonde girl Taylor in the other lane... Brandon flashes boy Taylor's phone number out the window.... rest is history. :-)

Lastly... about an hour prior to Taylor's session Friday morning... nature released her wrath on Montour. We got a ton of rain and a lot of wind. There are a couple shots below that I don't see everyday, and I've been here over 15 years. Our babbling brook of a creek turned into a raging river and a very tall and mature tree was a casualty on the property of Ron and Alice Garrett (love those folks, btw).
