Fight on! USC

Corbin and I had a great time this last weekend. We headed out to California for the big rivallry game between USC and UCLA. We flew in Friday night and with our hour delay we got in late. By the time we stopped for In-N-Out (of course) and with traffic, we didn't get to my friend, Stacy Terrell's, until around 10:00 and that meant we were up late visiting. The next morning was a very early arival at USC to beat traffic and parking issues. We had fun visiting with Denton's cousins, walking around and seeing the campus and the crazy tailgaiters, as well as a visit or two to the bookstore. The best part was it was sunny. The rain had come early and it was clear blue skies all day. I sat in a chair and soaked up the sun.

The game was great. It is always good when your team wins. I don't know what the win means except I believe we are now going to the rose bowl. Corbin and Doug (Denton's dads cousin) were discussing the ins and outs of the BCS, I really don't care about all of that, I like to go to games for the food.

We spent Saturday night in Camarillo and went to church with our friends there. It is interesting how it always feels like going home. We came home to 6 in or so of snow, ice and plain cold. I enjoy the snow but could do without the cold. I'm not sure how to have one without the other.

Now it is time to study for finals and finish up the semester. Jetblue is going ok. I am waiting to be able to use the benefits. Hopefully we will be able to take a trip in January with the rest of the kids back to California. Their friends were bummed they weren't with us.

That's it for now. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.
