My trip to Nags Head

This past weekend, I drove up to Nags Head to see family from my dad’s side (the Liggett side). My grandparents and uncles from southeast Ohio, my brother from Oklahoma, my sister from Philadelphia and my dad from Texas — and their respective families — met on a cold, windy week on the coast, and I was able to come up for the last few days.

The first picture is my brother and I messing around on the golf course. The second is of me, my sister Jeannie and her son Pearce, and my brother Kevin and his daughter Sage. I’m proud of them both.

I am a 33-year-old newspaper editor and radio show host living in Sanford, North Carolina. I have been editor at the Sanford Herald since February, 2007, and I've been in newspapers since 1999. I married my college sweetheart Jennifer in 2003, and today, we're the proud parents of a little girl, Hayley Alexandra (born Oct. 3, 2009) plus an 8-year-old Jack Russell Terrier and year-old Labernese.
