The 888 Fatboy Chocolate World Tour

09/30/2017 Part 2:
One cool thing about going across the bay from my town of Daphne to Mobile is that I can eat at new places. Tried out a new Japanese place for some sashimi and ramen:
Then I went and did some work at the college library.
I figured I'd show you guys some pics of Spring Hill College, my alma mater. It was founded in 1883, so it's the oldest catholic college in the south, and a few buildings and roads are pretty impactful on southern culture.
A bad pic of St. Joseph's Chapel:
The original building on campus, now the administration and communications building:
Yes, we have a golf course on campus…
This is the Avenue of the Oaks. Rumor has it that the director of Forest Gump (the movie) loved this view so Much that they recreated it in CGI and placed bumps house at the end for one of the
Most iconic scenic pans in the movie
More random pics of the college
Heading over to the inlaws, so I stopped by the growler store:

Keep it coming mate, really enjoying this

Thanks everyone - back when I was in college, I remember following the Ooe World Tour MyNudies and thought that everyone lived these super awesome lives. One dude just worked in a warehouse; nothing special, just a warehouse worker, and his tour documentation made it seem like he had the coolest live ever.
I've learned Lot of cool Things from following tours over the years - new beers to try, cool facts about buildings in Europe, photos of cool cars, and what makes families truly happy.
My goal is simply to give as much detail into how my family "does their thing" and maybe it will provide some assistance, or inspiration for something desperate to ask questions but too afraid to.
Anyways.. today should be fun, so stay tuned for another update tonight!

Sorry for the late update folks, yesterday was a bit of a busy day…
10/01/2017 Part 1:
Yesterday, we had 8 athletes of mine go and take part in a fitness competition about an hour east of our town, called the Pensacola Beach Brawl. Weekend competitions are pretty common in the CrossFit world and offer a great excuse for people from gyms around the area to gather and hangout for a few days. Yesterday was the "team" comps, and I had an all girl team competing as well as a 2guy/2girl team.
I was the only one wearing jeans lol
The event:
This event was particularly troublesome: ~150m sprints in the sand while carrying a 30# sandbag
And this one carrying sleds uphill in the sand
I took a break after the first event to go grab breakfast:
And a Bloody Mary [emoji41]
Continued…

Our girls (light blue shirts) getting after some pull
Ups:
Three of the four ladies are police officers,so their team name was "Girls with Guns" - very puny for sure lol
Some more pics of teams at the events:
Took another break after event 2 for a rum punch bucket lol
I had to get home and help my wife with the kids bed time rituals, so I made the drive back:
Bonus pic from the restaurant we ate at and these crazy nachos my buddy got haha
Until later crew!

Lovely work again mate, looks like you had a great time.

Thanks again everyone! Sorry to disappoint, but yesterday was pretty typical and I didn't document a bunch.
10/02/2017:
Woke up and took the kids for a short walk while they at some snacks before we left and took them to the Nanny:
After I dropped them off, I made some coffee and breakfast:
Then I pretty much just sat behind a computer for the rest of the day.
I'll try and get some better footage of today!

Tuesday's usually are my morning to open up the gym, but since my coach was sick last week, he wanted to make up the hours yesterday… I easily obliged and slept in a bit longer and got the kids ready for Pre-School:
What I was wearing:
Avery hates the rear facing seat in my car…
When I got home I made breakfast again:
Went and got a hair cut:
My barber just picked up this 2013 Triumph Bonneville T100 this weekend so I asked him to bring it to the shop so I could see it. It was super clean and the black out Package looked great:
Around 3pm I headed to the gym and opened up for afternoon sessions:
Had a snack
Closed up for the night
Came home and had some brisket and smashed potatos and Lagunitas IPA - over all a solid day. About to head to the beach for work, so I'll be sure to snag some photos of the Alabama Gulf Coast for today's update!

Looks like nori- pressed and dried seaweed.

@Chris is correct - sesame oil and sea salt dried nori - when I was little, my family was stationed in Arizona and my best friend was this little kid from Hawaii who's mother was Japanese. She fed us these nori crackers like crazy and I've had a habit of eating them ever since.
