Weekend Recap…

Well I have to say it was a great weekend all the way around.  I managed to get some “Honey-do” projects done like changing all of the locks out on the house.  I went to a keyless entry deadbolt type lock on the main entrance and with new door knob and deadbolt on the back door.  It is so great not having to fumble with keys to get into the house.  The new locks were a bit pricy but well worth it and went in easily in replacement of the old door knobs and locks.

How about those LSU Tigers!  They beat Auburn on their own turf in a 26-21 victory that was the first since 1998.  I was really impressed with the new Rookie Quarterback Jarrett Lee.  He started out a bit shaky during the first half but came out gunning in the second.  The freshman came through and showed everyone he could handle the pressure.  LSU will host Mississippi State at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge this Saturday.

Vidalia Vikings High School football brought home a victory over arch rival Ferriday Trojans under the Friday Night Lights in Ferriday, LA.  The 24-20 victory was the first in 3 years for the Vidalia vs. Ferriday rivalry.

In NASCAR action, my man Kevin Harvick #29 in the Shell/Pennzoil Chevrolet racked up his 8th consecutive Top 10 finish after finishing 6th at Dover International Speedway.  The finish has propelled him to 5th in the Point Standings only 101 points behind the leader, Carl Edwards.  Some are looking at Harvick to be the “Dark Horse” in the Chase for the Cup.  The Sprint Cup series will visit Kansas this weekend.
