This Blog is actually just an excuse for me to have a place to post a few of my myriad and always growing collection of photos! And, a way to keep my family and friends up to date on our activities.

Football time

This year the University of Michigan football team is ranked number two in the nation, and their arch rival Ohio State is number one. We had season tickets for the Michigan games for twenty years, and still follow their progress. Lots of our neighbors have lived in Michgan, too. Yesterday afternoon we had about ten neighbors over to our place to watch the "game of the century" and it was rather rowdy and lots of fun. We had two TVs going -- one upstairs, so Gramma and one or two others at a time could watch and talk at the same time, and the other one downstairs, where most of the noise was generated.

Unfortunately, U of M lost ... but by only three points 41-38, or some such big numbers. Great game. Lots of fun. We really enjoy these spur-of-the-moment, informal get togethers at our house. No cooking involved. Well, I did reheat pre-cooked barbecued chicken wing and served some bottled dressings to dip them into, but that's about it.
