When I worked at State Department, many years ago, we used to have a certain number of exclusive resorts around Washington, DC, and New York City that we would use for sensitive meetings where discretion was key. Places out in the countryside of Maryland and Connecticut, like that.
Never heard of Blackberry Farm before today, but it seems to be a resort of that nature. Makes perfect sense for a meeting of key boosters and university leadership to be held there if the desire is to keep things close-hold.
Can we all agree we are the body of the church of Gruden? It doesn't matter when you started believing, only that you believe. As a follower, some are blessed with gifts of prophecy (beaver and others), discernment (VFLnSFD and others), exhortation (comb and others), serving (Grand Vol), leadership (boro'), speaking in tongues (ape), mercy (preacher with the list), etc. All that matters is you recognize your gift and use it to grow Gruden's church. Mine is Faith....soon. :hi:
