Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Day 232: Go Badgers!!!

From opposite sides of the country, Mr. E and I watched the UW-Madison Badgers football game versus Nebraska yesterday and texted comments to each other.  The first quarter did not begin well... several miscues by our Badgers and dropped balls and turnovers.  Yikes!  But then Melvin Gordon kicked it into high gear and finished the game with a new NCAA rushing record.  Amazing!!! 

A couple of other firsts from the game included the coldest temperature at kick-off since the 1960s (26 degrees) and the first snowfall of the year:


Personally, I'm convinced that the turnaround in the game was a direct result of my putting on my Bucky Badger earrings...
