MattE's Second Day

Day two for MattE was a good day.  Why Cleveland?  It's a family name.

The G.H. Cleveland on this sign is Laurie's great grandfather, Grover Cleveland. Maybe you've seen his old peach packing plant on I-75.  It's marked with this giant peach.

It's actually an outlet mall now.

Why Matthew?  Umm...the disciple of course.  It has nothing to do with this guy

Matt E. Diaz

Just because a guy breaks the National League record with 10 consecutirve at bats with a hit with the Atlanta Braves not to mention as a 'Nole had the fans chanting J.D. Who? after hitting 3 homeruns in one playoff game against Oklahoma causing fans to forget J.D. Drew who had one the Golden Spikes Award one year earlier.  That would certainly not be enough to name a child Matte.  Oh, did I mention he loves Jesus and was always very kind to Josh when he would go to get baseballs signed.  No, trust me...he's named after the former tax collector.
