We drove to Savannah February 2-4 for a soccer tournament.  We all loved Savannah, and John's team played great, emerging as Champions of the top U12 Division.

We highly recommend Larry's Subs for great food and overdone NYC decor.  Here we are chatting up a U15 player from Kernersville, NC.

Same scene from last year, in which John's team was the runner-up.

To make our family's winning weekend complete, Frank's beloved Patriots played and won a very exciting Super Bowl game on Sunday.  This created some problems for us, as the late finish of John's championship match had us driving home through rural Georgia (read, "bad radio signal") during the game.  Our solution: we got off the road and watched the first half at a Jocks and Jills restaurant in Macon, then drove into the Atlanta signal area during halftime.  We were a mile from home when the winning field goal was kicked.
