Texas, Thunderstorms, and the National Spelling Bee 2016
If you follow me on Social Media (that's kind of taken over blogging, hasn't it?), you saw that I'm traveling. We're currently in the Lone Star State.

We were going to go out shopping this evening, but a thunderstorm (or at least hard rain) got in our way. But then I saw that my parents have the National Spelling Bee on!

I remember live-Tweeting - I mean, live-blogging! - during a prior Scripps-Howard National Spelling Bee. They are televised on ESPN each year. If you look at that post, you'll see a 1996 article from the State Journal-Register, on my family's trip to DC, for this event. My brilliant brother Yogesh made it to Nationals, that year.
