Take that Oz, it's 14 miles for me to travel, ONE WAY, to get to a SJU football game.

Up hill though broken glass and snow, no less!  Life ain't easy.

Mrs Oz and I had dinner last night with stanbob and his wife. It was a great evening (I hope they agree ;)) and we had a beautiful view of the city with perfect weather.  Most importantly, Bob drank a James Squire Nine Tales which I think he liked.



They left this morning to see Ayer's Rock in the Red Centre and then they are up to Port Douglas in the tropics.  They finish up in beautiful Sydney. It's a whirlwind trip and they are visiting some top spots. I hope it's a great trip.

Well, it is Stearns County, so 14 miles by horse and buggy is a bit of a trek, right, Rev?

A tradition unrivaled...

Duff, you forgot the "marrying your sibling" on the way to a "cow tipping" tournament prior to getting to the stadium  ;)
As of now they're on DOUBLE SECRET Probation!

Heck, seeing as everyone is so busy I'm surprised that anyone turns up at all.

You guys and your reminiscing about life at SJU reminded me of something. I heard about this documentary when it premiered to great acclaim at Sundance a few years ago. Have any of you Johnnies seen the film? If so, did it bring back fond memories of Collegeville? I would assume so.

I was just in an Uber and the young guy driving makes small talk, discovers I'm from
Minnesota and declares this guy is one of his best friends.

Seems like St.Johns has been spending some time pulling away some Texas kids up to Minnesota, would be a good pipeline state to build for them!

stanbob emailed me about the most amazing photo of Uluru (Ayer's Rock) that I've ever seen.
