Stilly

James, Levi and I went up to Stilly this weekend for a good ol' trip down memory lane.  It was the first football game that we've been able to attend since we graduated and since they built the new stadium.  Here's one of the few pics I did take, showing how good our seats were...and how fabulous our Pokes played.



A few things that reminded us that we were back in Stillwater:
1.  Stillwater people are real chatty. 
It made me a little uncomfortable at first.  But I finally realized I wasn't in Dallas anymore Toto, and managed a smile and a courtesy laugh to Chatty McChatterson in the hotel lobby.
2.  Taxi cabs are not of abundance. 
We had the same cab drive 3 times in a row.  Her motto for getting the drunk kids off the strip at 2 am... "Stack 'em and Pack 'em!"
3.  If you want a cab, you must call them (not readily available on the curb)
and you then wait 30 minutes.
4. Smoking indoors still exist. 
Blah, one thing I do not miss.
5.  The wind. 
It actually does come sweeping down the plains.

Oh, Stilly.  You hold a specially little spot in my heart.  I don't miss you, but you still bring me great joy.
