Hello From Rome!

Hey everyone hello from Rome.  Been here for a couple of days as we get ready for the Italian Open.  Things are a little different this year here in Rome. The Center court that has been used for many year is no more.  In the last year they have torn it down and started building a new center court.  I have heard that the new court will have a retractable roof and may or may not be ready for next year.  In the mean time the tournament has set up alot of temporary seats on a couple of courts to make up the difference.  As usual Rome is a beautiful city and a great place to walk around.   This is the start of the clay court season for Andy as we point toward the French Open.  Andy has been working hard and I know he is ready to get his feet dirty and win some matches on Clay.
On a personnal note (I know Andy put the news in his blog) I have had a very eventful last few weeks.  Some time at home gave me chance to spend time with family and friends and yes get engaged.  I am a very lucky guy that Cori said yes and we are excited about planning a wedding in the future.  Talk about life changing.  This will be for sure.
