Taking the Influence of Edna West

As most of you know, since the beginning of my family medicine residency I have wanted to do an extra year of training in sports medicine. In November I went on 10 interviews across the country at different programs and was very impressed by them all. Jenny and I spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out where we wanted to go.

Today was match day and we found out that we got our first choice and will be moving to Los Angeles in late June. Starting July 1st, I will be a fellow on the sports medicine staff and helping to take care of the UCLA athletes. I will be on the sidelines of home football games in the Rose Bowl and I will have a few teams that will call me their team doc.

We are both quite excited about this adventure in our life next year but it is a little crazy too. I hope some of you all will come out to visit! It's going to be a little warmer to visit then Columbia, Mo. Anyone want to come to Cali learn to surf???

Happy Birthday Landon

You're only 29, but this gives almost a year to learn this, so here's a sample, and a link to the tab. Get to it.

Adam--what's the word from Pee-Pappy?

Is there a doctor in the house?

Happy Birthday. Always think you look like this guy. Maybe it's the 8 o'clock shadow.

Beech is a Nut not a Football Team

Best of luck to the Columbia Central High School football team Friday night as they step onto the Tennessee Tech football field for the state championship game against Beech. Looks like they will prove once again that Columbia is better than Hendersonville.

Justin or Landon are you guys going to the game?
