The few... The proud...

Those that have been following our blog religiously... and I know you're out there, know that we don't do very many seniors THIS time of year. However, we've had a little run here of those that are just, ummm deadline challenged or, ummm.... just trying to get it right this time around.... ;-)

Enter Austin here. A soft spoken lanky fella from BCLUW, I'm guessing that he, along with many guys, don't enjoy getting up at the crack of dawn for pictures ONCE... let alone twice. But Papa Craig and his wife Shari (also known to those at East Marshall high school as Mrs. Smith) insisted. And for that, I'm thankful.

In a small-world moment I learned that Shari grew up in Kansas and "bought all her clothes" at the store that bears the name of my sister's husband and his father in the Sunflower state. (shameless plug... www.vanderbilts.com). Seriously... what are the odds?

I also learned that Austin is joining the Marines after high school and shoves off August 9th for San Diego. He's got a good start on making it cause I'd take this guys physique in a heartbeat. Good luck and God speed, my man.
