My AWESOME day at Training Camp

I hope this doesn't bore the hell out of you guys, but I'm so excited after being at camp that I had to share. First, it was a raining, humid morning..to say the least, but I got there before the gates were open and was right on the rail at the start of practice. Some of the pics below have a "haze" to them.. my lens kept fogging. First I want to say how blessed I feel that my son was able to get so many autographs.. what a great bunch of players we have. I was almost in tears, they were soooo generous. OH, and I also have shots of the new Jason Taylor below. Feel free to view at your leisure.

Randy Thomas (not Sellers) was the second one out to the field I believe, Carter was first:

After practice Moss signed for such a long time. He was directly in front of me for most of it.. like 10mins.. I could have kissed him he was so close. People were pushing me into the railing but the wonderful man signed every thing I had:

I have many more pics of them playing, but too tired to post them. I hope you enjoy what I have posted. I still can't believe it!

Nice! Looks like you had a good time.

I think that first pic is Randy Thomas though, no?

Nice pics of camp. That’s really cool that you and your son where able to get so many autographs!! I would love to make it to camp someday. All you guy's that live close and get to go don't know how lucky you are.

Great pics!
I haven't been to training camp in a couple of years but it was a good time when I went in the past. Looks like you and your son lucked out to get such a good spot.

Nice! Looks like you had a good time.

Oh ..shoot. yes, Randy.... I have one of Mike too.. I'm exhausted, but it was worth getting up at 5am!!!

One the fans got Mike's daugher to sign her Skins game ticket for her - yes, I said his daughter singed it... kind of cute.

Looks like you had a great day! Nice pics

Nice work hess. I can't believe how many sigs you got.

Great pics!

I did exactly what you guys told me to do. I went in and went down to the left rail, and stayed there. That's where all the players come to sign first. I had Moss' jersey hanging over the rail yelling his name and he came straight over to me. :)

Nice pictures! Thanks for sharing them.

Good work, Hessy.

I can't believe I haven't been up there yet. How long did it take you get there?
