So we officially soared to new Heitners. Some of you who have been reading this blog for a long time were in attendance at my wedding with Brooke. Others have certainly been inundated with updates. It was honestly a magnificent affair, and I am beyond excited to see what the future brings personally and professionally. It’s been a slower December for my rooting interests with the Dolphins playing poorly, the Heat being mediocre and the Gators without a Bowl game. My excitement has shifted to the beginning of January, when I’ll be heading to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Zambia for some relaxation, a safari and a river cruise. These Friday updates may or may not be published, but the regular contributors will keep the site fresh with new information.
