I'm out for awhile

Saturday night in cold Vermillion. The calendar says it's spring, but don't you believe it. . . . . .

Well, in the tournament my favorite teams have fallen by the wayside---Drake is gone, Duke is gone, Notre Dame is gone, BYU is gone. Only Wisconsin and West Virginia are left. I just watched UCLA escape in front of a home crowd as everyone knew they would, but it was fun to see the mighty #1 Bruins sweat down to the final five seconds. Maybe we're saving the biggest upset of them all for Carolina to lose on Sunday. Sure, on their "home" court in Raleigh? Nope, the NCAA wants a UCLA-Carolina final, so I'll be watching baseball that night. . . . . .

Happy Easter to the kids and all the family. I assume Jason and Allison stayed in Rapid City. Ryan, I hope you're feeling better this week, and hi to Cassie as well. The Perli family and Heather are in Pierre. This was Day #9 for Oliver and me alone here, but Heather and Dylan will be home by Monday night. Monday will be an all-day cleaning experience around here. Oliver and I (well, he won't be much help!) are going to vacuum and wash and dust, etc. . . . . .

Anonymous responders to this and other blogs take all the fun out of it, so I'm out of here for awhile. I think I'll stick to writing my once-a-month newspaper column. . . . . .

Hey Parker,
I personally enjoy reading your posts and hope you continue!

Happy Easter to you and Oliver (and the family, also) from my family her in the old home town!
