Where in the World????

Do we have any "Today Show" fans reading the blog today? If so you might have seen me today! Dee and I took a little field trip this afternoon to visit a friend that is in the hospital. Dee had to run a few errands and I wanted a quiet place to read for a little while (that is another post). I never would have guessed that I would end up in the middle of a Today Show live broadcast! Matt Lauer has a segment each summer where he travels around the world to interesting and random places. Today was day two of his trip... and he was in Ireland. I came upon the broadcast as I investigated the sounds of traditional music and dancing echoing off of buildings. At first I didn't know what was going on, but I saw several TV cameras, and one of them had the NBC peacock..... I turned around and to my surprise I was standing right next to Matt!!! I grabbed my camera and started to take pics.... I then grabbed my phone and called Dee... and then called my parents in the states (they were already watching the show)! I don't know if you saw me... but I was the crazy Amercian waving at the camera! I'm such a tourist on some days! Today was definitely one of those days where I just have to sit back and count my blessings to live in such an amazing place among such amazing people!


Me and My friend Matt!

When we returned home tonight from the ballgame, there was a call from Hollywood. Could it have something to do with Matt? -Dad
