Go Red Raiders!

I am definitely a fair-weather football fan. Hey, what's the use of being loyal if they are just a bunch of losers? Robert, of course is always loyal. So this year we have actually been watching together as the Texas Tech football team is 10-0. The ENTIRE town of Lubbock is red and black rooting for their team.

Robert is in charge of flags for our boy scout fundraising, which means every federal holiday he puts up (and then takes down in the evening) the US flag to businesses around town and every Tech home game he puts up Tech flags. Holidays and Saturdays - No sleeping in for him!

This past Saturday we went up to Tech for a tailgate party with Robert's department. We didn't have tickets to the game (I told Robert I would have scalped them if we did - hey, they are selling for hundreds!!)

But we did have fun at the BBQ. One good thing about W. Texas - you can have a gorgeous 70 degree day in November!

This card was sent to me from a guy I work with in Boise. I had sent him a TT shirt to say thanks for all his help with my recent work... and after he wore it for the game, we won! I'm sure that's what did it.

November 22 is Tech vs. Oklahoma. Go Tech!!
