Why the Rush?

No, we're not fans of Rush Limbaugh.  Didn't even like the movie August Rush.  Keith is however related to Benjamin Rush, signer of the Declaration of Independence.  Go ahead, wikipedia him.

So the name Rush has been handed down for generations.  Keith's grandma's middle name was Rush.  He has a cousin named Benjamin Rush - there's one in every generation.  

We both loved Benjamin.  And the history of the Rush is a bonus.  Besides, it sounds kind of cool.  And sort of matches his dad who's middle name is Boone.  But that's a different post entirely.
