Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my ninth romantical adventure with my husband, Whit Hall. We're in San Francisco, having a breakfast of scrambled eggs and chicken fried steak, when we get wind of the latest article about us in the paper. Daytona, it seems, now was four billionaires based on that annual list thingie. And we're two of the four. Neither Whit nor I want to know the number we're at. It's not really our money...

Saturday, July 17, 2021 Whit and Eddie are at their place in San Antonio, having moved there for the upcoming Matadors football season, and are throwing a pool party for family and friends.

That evening, after everyone's gone home, Whit receives a dist...

Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my fifth (OMG!) romantical adventure with my newish husband, Whit Hall. It's Thanksgiving, the day before my birthday (a young 53, thank you very much) and Whit has something up his sleeve. Turns out, he's decided to surprise me with a trip to La Serena, a quaint seaside town in Chile, where I used to live when I was an exchange student back in the old days of 1982 (two years before Whit was ...

Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my fourth romantical adventure with my new husband, Whit Hall. We just moved. Again... I know... We bought a house that's in the middle of Daytona Beach, as a matter of fact. It's over a hundred years old but, as far as I can tell, there aren't any ghosts, so that's good. Also, Whit and I both love the place. There's been a weird glitch, though. Seems like the contractor Whit hired to i...

Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my first romantical adventure with my new boyfriend, Whit Hall. I'm 52 and a big bear of a guy. Whit is 35 and a tall, muscled retired pro football player. Apparently, opposites do attract! Funny thing is, though... Whit knows more about classic movies than me and, it turns out, he loves 70s music as much as I do... Maybe we're not so different, after all... Anyway, we're here on Mo'orea, t...

Monday, February 14, 2022 Whit and Eddie are just getting back into Daytona Beach after attending the Super Bowl in Los Angeles.

Monday, October 4, 2021 Well, folks... there's sadness in San Antonio. The Matadors are coming off a crushing blow. They just lost, lost bad, to the Bills up in Buffalo. It was a wipeout. Whit's taking it hard. After consulting with the team's GM, they decide to move practice to the training camp in Kerrville, out in the Texas Hill Country. Maybe that will help buck up the players and the staff and re-focus their efforts. In the meantime...

Thursday, November 25, 2021 Having just bought Medina Dairy from the Feds, Whit and Eddie decide to have a family Thanksgiving in the part of the old ranch house that survived the recent fire.

Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my second romantical adventure with my new boyfriend, Whit Hall. Well, we're back in Daytona Beach and have been for about five weeks. After everything went down with Whit's family in East Texas, it sure has been nice just to be here, getting to know each other more and more every day.

Monday, July 4, 2022 It's the Fourth of July and Whit and Eddie suddenly find themselves back in the good ole U. S. of A. just in time for a pool party in Daytona Beach. Waking up in time to see the dawn from the back patio of their brand-new house on the beach is a wonderful way to start the day. But then a wayward beach ball suddenly causes the day to take a turn for the irritating as they meet four guys who aren't quite as thrilled to...

Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my third romantical adventure with my new husband, Whit Hall. OMG! Can you believe we got married? Well, anyway, we did and it's been three and change mostly blissful months and, well, that thing that everyone asks us about still hasn't happened... Not that I'm in any sort of rush. Whit and I still have lots of fun in all sorts of, uh, creative ways. In case you're wondering, the world's ...

Howdy! I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my seventh romantical adventure with my husband, Whit Hall. Well, we just bought another house. Yes! Again! This one is north of downtown San Antonio and is more secure than Whit's house in King William which is why we bought it. We've decided to spend the 2020 Matador football season in San Antonio.
