How 'bout them 'Hawks?

Okay, I'll get back to storytelling in my next post. I'm in Murray, KY on my way to Bethlehem, IN. I watched the NCAA Championships last night with a friend who graduated from KU. I taught Susan's son Sam to play dice while we watched the game. It was easier to watch without the sound. I'm not a rabid fan, but I do like to listen to the Kansas Jayhawks basketball games on the radio when I'm home.

Here was the scene in downtown Lawrence--if I'd been home, I probably would have heard it! In 1988 when they won, it was wild, with cars overturned and revelry all night long. I don't mind that I wasn't in town this time.
