Football Weather

You know its football season just by the way it feels outside. Yesterday Collin's team (JV) played West Jefferson at home. When we walked to the game at 4:30 a very light jacket was appropriate. By the 4th quarter we were freezing and wished we had our winter parkas. People going to the varsity game were probably preparing for snow. Football weather has its own personality. I remember games at Ricks College that were so hot they sold popsicles. But once the sun went down behind the stadium everyone was pulling out their gloves, hats, scarves and hot chocolate.

Collin started this football game and played nearly all the game. He was also one of the captains. He was excited. He looks pretty small out there on the line - all 115 pounds of him. He keeps growing taller but can't get any weight on. I wish that were my problem! Anyway, he loves football.
