I'm still giddy over such a cool experience at the Journey concert in my hometown Greensboro North Carolina.

As a kid, my favorite band was Journey. As an adult, their music is still just as prominent in my playlists.

They have played at the Greensboro Complex eight times since 1978 and I have seen them 5 or 6 of those times.

Toward the end of this most recent show, all of the sudden, now-Greensboro resident and already-legendary guitarist Eric Gales walked out on stage and crushes it with Neal Schon in a epic and unforgettable jam session. The band started the song before Neal was able to introduce him but it felt like all 11,000 Greensboro peeps knew they were watching one of their own.

I sure did. And I have met Eric Gales several times before the whole world knew him. He and his wife Ladonna are great people and I met them ten years ago this week ironically. We met in Dallas and realized we all lived in Greensboro so it was such a full circle moment to be a Greensboro native watching my all-time favorite band and see one of my Greensboro heroes walkout on stage.

I did not have my cameras with me so all I had was my phone but I wasn't worried about capturing it, I was only worried about memorializing it. One of the coolest memories ever.

For all Grimsley Football fans....
Thanks again for all of your support this past year - and every year! We know we ask a lot from you but we have one more need.....we need your help raising money for Championship Rings. Our players started working on this State Championship in January and they never stopped until we lifted the trophy in Chapel Hill. It's a memory that will live with them forever! We also want to reward each and every one of them with a Championship Ring just like we did in 2021 and 2024.

Any amount helps. If you can spare $5 or $50 or any amount at all, we would greatly appreciate the help.

Click here to donate: https://gofund.me/261ead841

If you want to sponsor a specific player you can donate $250 and in the comments, tell us which player and we will personally deliver the ring to them as a gift from you. If more than one sponsor chooses the same player, that's okay too....we will pass on the name of every sponsor to every player.

Corporate Sponsors who can donate $1000 or more will be included as sponsors of the Championship Rings in everything we do, videos, ceremony, banners etc.

Thanks to all who have donated already and thanks to Breece Enterprises for being the first sponsor.

It is truly impossible to put into words what it means to our coaching staff, our players, our school leadership and our student body and faculty to have Whirlie Nation backing us in everything we do all year long. We are infinitely grateful for everything you do for us and as we work toward this final goal of awarding our players with Championship Rings, we assure you that not one single dollar will be taken for granted. We appreciate each and every one of you!

Go Whirlies

LOOK UP TONIGHT! 🌙 🪐

The Moon is set to embrace majestic Saturn in the night sky tonight, creating one of the most enchanting sights of the month! As darkness falls, step outside and look toward the southeastern horizon — you’ll see the glowing Moon shining close to Saturn, forming a stunning celestial duo that’s perfect for skywatchers and stargazers alike.

Whether you’re watching with the naked eye or through a telescope, this cosmic encounter is a reminder of the beauty and wonder above us.

My camera has taken me to 49 states and I have captured hundreds of marinas but I think the absolute best sunrise spot in America is at Angel's Landing Campground Restaurant and Marina in SC.

Another magical morning at Angel's Landing Campground Restaurant and Marina....one of my all time favorite sunrise spots.
