A Rave and a Rant: OSU-UW Oct 16th

As many of you know,  I was very excited for the OSU-UW game at Husky Stadium last weekend.  I took a sorority sister, Julie Gardner Lewis.  We were pumped up after two beers in "The Zone" beer/food garden area.  I didn't excape though without an incident - we were still in the beer garden at the coin toss, which OSU won so we decide to receive.  Right after that, some random super drunk guy looks at me and screams "F-You!!".  Woa dude!  That really set me off, as I did nothing other then be dressed in OSU garb. Of course I was really pissed so yelled back "What did you say to me?"  That resulted in several profanity laced comments back and forth, while his not-as-drunk buddies told him to shut up and apologize.  Man, some drunk guys can be total doucebags....

 Anyway, we sat in the OSU section, had a total blast, but sadly, UW beat us by one point after triple overtime.  Ugh....  Really tough loss...

The two guys in orange had complete head-to-toe body stockings on.  What was weird is that the eyes were cut out, but no hole cut out for a mouth

Me!!


Big RAVE: My nephew!!

A few new pics my SIL Evie sent me last week.   Isn't my nephew the cutest?!  He is now 9 months old as of 10/14/10.
Very much looking forward to spending time with them over Thanksgiving.

Hurricane Ridge/Elk Mountain Hike/Climb - WA

Rob and I headed out for a day-hike on Sept 25th.  Ferry from West Seattle to Southworth, WA, then the drive north to the Hood Canal Bridge, over the Bridge west to Port Angeles and then into the Olympic National Park up to Hurricane Ridge. It was a 70 degree, sunny fall day. A great trip and memorable hike up to over 6200 feet. The view was to die for!
