Home again, home again, jiggity jig

Hi, everyone. We got back home at about 3 p.m. Saturday. In all, I had driven about 1,180 miles since leaving at about 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. That's a lot of driving.

Things went pretty well. Everyone cooperated very well with me, and we got to the game in pretty of time Friday morning. We ran into a few areas of snow during the drive (especially on the trip home), but nothing too bad.

My original plan was to drive all the way home Friday night, but I had a lot of work after the game (interviews, etc.), so we didn't start the trip home until about 2:30 p.m. We got to the bridge (about halfway) about 8 p.m., and we still had five hours of driving ahead of us. So we spent three nights in motels instead of two.

And ... our team won the game, 22-14, to win the state Division 8 championship. It's the first time I have ever covered our team winning a state title. So I'll be writing a lot tomorrow.

I'll write a report for you, too, with a few photos (just a few).
