NOTRE DAME FOOTBALL GAME


Yesterday I attended the Notre Dame vs. Navy football game in South Bend, Indiana.  This was a dream come true for me.  Notre Dame beat Navy 56-14 so we saw a lot of touch downs.  If you look at this picture I was seated just left of the bottom score board at bottom of this picture.  I've never seen 80,000 people in one place in my life.  The actual count was 80,758 I believe. 

 Some fun things I learned:

  • Those gold helmets are super shiny
  • Every seat in the stadium gives you an un-obstructed view
  • The band is even better than the team, no joke
  • 2 Navy F16 flew over the stadium
  • Naval officers look great in their uniforms
  • Parking isn't cheap or close
  • No one yeld "rudy, rudy, rudy"
  • Can't wait to go again.

Journal Entries of Saints after they left Nauvoo





























The last mile of Nauvoo for the Saints

This sign is at the beginning of the road shown below.  The Saints of Nauvoo walked this for the last time in February, leaving most everything they had.  Along the path are signs that quote journal entries these saints wrote on their journey.
