DU - 1 MN - 1

They go to OT.

MN scores. 1-1, under review.

We have been to 3 Frozen Fours, 3 Regionals, and 4 or 5 Final Fives. I think we have the most fun at the Final Five. The Xcel is a great host. It is on Easter weekend this year and there won't be a St. Patty's Day Parade like usual, but it is still going to be a blast!

Trupp's goal is #1 on ESPN Sports Center. I didn't record it, but I am sure someone will. Last year it was Bina, this year it is Trupp. Thanks Minnesota! Woohoo!

Another couple is joining us for the Frozen Four this year in Denver. Anyone have extra tickets for all the games? Give me a call at 701-230-3225 or send me an email at breswen@hotmail.com. Thank you! Oh, and GO SIOUX!

Were you at the Hersheys Track Meet or in the Chamber Fishing Tournament? I could hear the track meet announcer all day. I was outside staining my fence and I got crispy too.. with sunscreen. Mr. Yekcoh made some fresh walleye for dinner Friday night. It was yummy. That was in return for staining the deck. I have been a staining fool this weekend. Oh, my guess is Golden Lake. Ashtabula is more than an hour away from Grand Forks.

I knew, but I looked it up so that it sounded better then me explaining it. Examples are carp, suckers, bullheads. Yuck.

Here is a tiny lake (dam) that has an occasional big fish. Was it there, or maybe Stump Lake? But Stump isn't so little anymore. Dam

I have a Toyota Camry Hybrid. I like it a whole bunch. There is lots of room and fun features to play with. *I really like the navigation system.* But best of all, I don't really remember the last time I put gas in it. I easily get 450 miles out of a tank and I live close to where I work. It doesn't have the guts my former car had, but at about twice the mileage, I can live with it. I had it all winter and NEVER had a problem starting it, even on the coldest of days (I do not have a block heater and don't know if that is even an option on this car). I think that bank of batteries could start most anything. There is a gauge on the dash that constantly monitors your mileage. So you really learn to lay off the gas pedal and also learn to let the car coast more. The hybrids seem to have the ablilty to coast faster at much greater distances than a regular car. I also have to say, my son has a 2006 Honda Civic with a manual transmission. He gets about the same mileage as my hybrid. So there are options out there. I also think the Camry is a very safe car to drive. The thing has airbags all over the place. The Prius has a different look. But even those are growing on me.

Google Maps has a neat picture from above if you look at the Satellite or Hybrid view too. It is even more interesting if you have Google Earth installed. I like how you can see "Fighting Sioux" written with the bushes that between the sidewalks on the east side of the building between the parking lots. You should arrange for a tour for the kids and their parents too, so they can see the WHOLE building.

I think its a nice perk for the band members to get seats in the lower bowl for all the hard work they put in during the year. It was really neat having the band there for Duncan's Hobey in St Louis. Hearing them play for him kinda gave me those goosebumps you get when you are proud of your kid. They added to the whole ceremony as well as to every game they play at. Maybe you forget that they are giving up things to perform in the band when they could have had other plans.

It went from this... To this... Someone needed to get their facts straight before they hit the publish button.

Sorry to have offended you. Not all kids do drink. But a majority of them do break the law by doing so, sadly.

I'm just glad he is a normal kid and was having fun at UND. He obviously is a socializer and we learned this week what can happen to people who refuse to be social and interact with people. Most of us (or our kids) have done what he got caught doing. It's not right and is against the law, but learning that following the law is easiest in the long run is just a part of growing up. It is frustrating to learn this way, but it can always be worse than 10 days in jail. Man, am I a parent or what?

Am I the only person feeling totally confused and messed up from reading this thread?

We need some way to kill the time while we wait for JT's decision!

We used to play smear all the time back when I lived in Nelson County. It was one of the best games ever. We need to revive those smear games for the off season.

Thursdays were ladies night at Level 7 and we got free drinks and pizza until they let the men in at 9:00. For some reason guys would be lined up outside waiting to get in. It wouldn't be for all the drunk 18-21 year old girls, would it? Ummm, Bumble Bees. I sure hope JT stays.

The Speakeasy. Wasn't East Grand fun when we were 18?

This Daisy went with the red hair dye rather than the blue.

I just got a new dog too. A Golden Doodle. I wanted to name her Coulee, but my husband wanted to name her Daisy. So she is Daisy, named after a 90 year old lady from church that has hair just like her.

Gee thanks from a born and raised ND girl.
