Boilermakers

We hit the road again, for Indiana to visit the little engineer. We did manage to tailgate too :) That trip gets longer every time. One thing we did notice along the way, was the traffic volume was very low. A bad sign for our economy. The highway between Columbus, and Indianapolis is usually clogged with trucks, but this year I could relax, and cruise right through. Good for me, not for the economy. We will make ONE more trip to West Lafayette, and that's for graduation. Yee Ha. I will miss the tailgating, as we've met some great students, and parents over the years. Enough to know that this red state, blue state crap, as far as I can tell, is just that. We're all Americans. A liberal New Yorker can have a beer with a conservative Midwesterner, and laugh and have a good time. We all want the same thing, peace, prosperity, and freedom. We have differences, but so what. If we were all the same, we wouldn't be America.

Will Purdue ever win another game this year? Yikes. Maybe Nic is a jinx, and needs to graduate, for the sake of the team.







The trip would have been a bit shorter, if we didn't have to wait for "Bladder Boy" all the time.
