The deer is dripping blood all over the back of this Suburban as they drag him out In order to determine the age of the buck, they had to pull out the deer's teeth. Gruesome experience. December, 1993 What a great month. Basketball began. I got a chance to return home for nearly a week. I saw snow in Georgia. Wow! The strangest thing I had to cover was Tim Simmons resigning after two games as the Perry girls coach. I didn't even find out about it until the day after it happened. The other highlight was Perry beating Washington County in the championship of the Houston County Invitational. Great game, especially considering how awful Perry had played in the two opening games of the tournament. January, 1993 Basketball got real old in a hurry.

I needed a prescription for basketball withdrawal. 1 guess I got it, because both Westfield teams started playing better. So did Perry's two clubs. The highlight: having January 10 off. I needed that one. For once, I was able to go home at 5 p.m. on a Tuesday night instead of turning in at 2 or 3 a.m. That may have given me energy for the stretch run. February, 1993 Ooh, bad month. Number one, I found out the paper was being bought for the second time in a month. The next day, I was involved in a car accident which took out mv front left headlight. Like an idiot, I thought I could be all over the state at once. I started off in Macon at 9 a.m. in the morning, covering the GISA C-team basketball tournament.

Hey, I was still planning on going to Jesup to see Wayne County and Perry that night Forget it! If there was any positive, it was going to see John Rowland win the state Class AAA wrestling championship in Gainesville. If you're a wrestling novice, that's a great place to really get into the sport. March, 1993 Of course, I'd love to be saying that I'll be covering Perry tonight in the state championship. It's too bad because Perry's team was as good a collection of high school talent as I've ever seen. That brings us to now and good bye. There are many, many people who I would like to thank for their kindness, too many to mention. But you know who you are. Thanks again, Perry. This was my first experience in the "real world."
