Go Cats Go!!

I am always happy to see the Wildcats win hockey games. But there is just something extra that I feel when they beat BU. They beat them last night 4-1 in BU's back yard. It was also Coach Umile's 400th college win. For those who don't know Jack Parker is the coach of BU. He is also a tremendous coach with a boatload of class. He had the PA announcer at the game announce that it was Umile's 400th win. Not something every home team coach would think to do for the opposing team.
Back in my UNH days our group used to sit right behind the opposing team's bench. We were very vocal and at times obnoxious. I am reminded of one of our favorite cheers.
"Lets go Blue....Screw BU!" In fact we liked that cheer so much we didn't just chant that when BU was in town. We used to pull that one out all the time. Didn't matter who the Cats were playing.

So GO CATS GO!!!

World Series Winner

I have finally figured out who will win the World Series. I can't believe I didn't realize this before. Must be that I have been too busy at school to take the time to see this obvious fact. For those of you who didn't know I have had this whole week off from school. But that might be another blog another time. Back to my prediction. It is really quite simple once you look at where the next Frozen Four is going to be. Last year we went to St. Louis. Cardinals won the World Series. Hmmmmmm. I am going to predict that the Rockies will win it all based on this very scientific study I have just finished. Actually this thought came to me a couple of days ago but I had to do extensive research to prove my hypothesis.
Fact or Baloney? You be the judge.

Autumn in Vermont

I took some pictures around the house the other day to share with everyone.



It was a good winter squash year.


We only got 3 pumpkins from our five plants. I only let one pumpkin grow per plant hoping to get giant pumpkins. They were slow germinating which led to us getting only BIG pumpkins as opposed to giant ones.







These shots were looking down the driveway towards the out front veggie garden. Corn, onions, potatoes, squashes, kale, beans, leeks, and sunflowers grew in this garden.

We are rapidly approaching "peak foliage" in our part of the world. The highways and byways and even the little dirt roads are crowded with leaf peepers taking in the beauty of the change of seasons.
