Grodner I swear, I think we may get a Big Brother wedding out of this, not to mention that Jeff and Jordan are still together. Wouldn’t that be great? And Jeff will be back too. Jeff might be spending the night in the house in a couple of weeks so look out for that! I can’t say that Brendon and Rachel are the same as Jeff and Jordan;

I hope this doesn't mean that Jeff may stay in the U.S. for the next couple of weeks.  It'll give me flashbacks to Amazing Race Family Edition  :groan:  For those not that familiar with Amazing Race, the ratings for the series peaked after the finale of Amazing Race 7 with Boston Rob and Amber's exciting finish against Uchenna & Joyce.  What did CBS then do?  Some CBS genius thought that doing a Family Edition for season 8 with the teams mostly staying in the U.S. was the way to go.  It was a major momentum killer for the program.  I think season 8 would have been a success if they had allowed the teams to race around the world.

Oh, apskip and others, don't be that concerned about the days.  Zsolt mentioned in a chat that they weren't even that concerned about the 100 days.

I hope he's got his itinerary all straightened out.  I saw last night on Twitter a Tweeter with help from other Tweeters, trying to connect with Jeff regarding a travel host down  in New Orleans.  At times, it was a comedy of errors.  I don't know if the problem was the CBS web site, Jeff, or both.   :lol:   I hope they finally linked up.

For those interested go here http://search.twitter.com/search?q=jeffschroeder23
and scroll back to last night.

Peach may not have spent as much time as I have in Boston (living there 6 years). I do not remember ever hearing about Boston peaches and I used to go weekly to the produce wholesale market on food buying expeditions.

there is a website called NickelodeonParentsConnect that follows local produce. Here is their applicable listing:
# Farms
# Peaches/Plums (0)

Jeff is still visiting sites in New Orleans today and going fishing tonight and he is heading to Texas tomorrow.

I think he is doing a cross country trip and will end up in Los Angeles to make an appearance on Big Brother and then leave the country to travel around the world.

Jeff just tweeted that someone bought him a plane ticket and he's leaving New Orleans this afternoon and flying to Austin, TX.

Here's a twitpic of him fishing last night.

Peach, I agree.  I wonder if it's going to change once he leaves the country.  I wonder why he picked Austin.  San Antonio with the Alamo, River Walk, and Mexican culture is by far the number one destination in Texas.  Maybe CBS has a Musical Showcase down on 6th street for some of their up and coming groups.  Otherwise, we're just going to see the Congress Street Bridge bats, Jeff swim in Barton Springs, maybe eat at the Oasis, etc. :yawn:

Thanks for the photos RFWill.  It appears that Jeff and the group had a more successfull time fishing from his hostess's post over at CBS http://www.cbsaroundtheworld.com/#/journey/in-the-bayou/tip/225

p.s. (the site won't let me cut and paste her note)

Jeff helped selling tacos this morning at 828 6th St at the Royito's Taco mobile to earn his keep and was given free breakfast and a plane ticket to Dallas.

I will submit a hypothesis that Jeff has been given orders to do a circumnavigation east to west to be different than ATWFF1. This could be done from DFW, but would better be done from LAX or SFO. My prediction does not preclude ATWFF2 going to Central and/or South America, but the hop across the mighty Pacific Ocean would necessitate a return to Mexico City or LAX to do that. We should find out soon enough based on where Jeff goes from DFW.
