Nebraska for Thanksgiving!

Alec Brindell Thanksgiving
Hi every one. And I literally mean every ONE. You're probably the only person who has come to read this blog. :)

We went to Nebraska this Thanksgiving and it was pretty cool. I must say. Me, Bet, and Em all flew up to Omaha(using points, I might add). Dad met us at the airport.

From there we pretty much just spent our days being together. Hanging around at the house. We took Emily to the nearby park. Dad showed me a buncha stuff on the guitar. I learned how to play Sweet Home Alabama. :) It might come in handy the next time I'm in a red-neck bar and need to get out of a jam. I'll play that song and while they're all going "woo hoooooo. yeah , bubba!", I'll use up those "3 steps out the door".

If you would like to see the rest of the pics from this trip, go here. I wish you well and please come back to read about my trips around the country. I've visited some pretty cool places and I love to talk about it!
Peace, Love, and Cranberry Sauce.
Alec

VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA

To all of my family in the deep south. I hope you get out and vote this year. Regardless of what you may think, your vote REALLY DOES count. Also, I hope you really think about the decision you're about to make this year when you push that button. Don't think that you have to vote for Bush(I mean McCain ) just because others do. Also, don't be scared that there may be a "black" man in office. Ask yourself this: 1. Do you want your loved one to stay in Iraq another moment longer? 2. Why did we go to Iraq in the first place? 3. Do you want 4 more years of George W. Bush in office? If you're reading this and you're my family, think about how well you know me. You know that I wouldn't be so vocal if I didn't believe so strongly in this. I'd be honored if you wanted to call and talk about it. Don't believe all all of the silly emails, posts, and horrible things that the opposition is saying out there. They're nothing but mud slinging in a time of desperation. Please make the right choice. Vote for Obama.
