Braved the snow and ice on Saturday night to drive to Baltimore and watch the State championship game at Raven's (M&T) Stadium. I'd never been there before, and like a doof forgot my camera. One of Jenny's friend knew someone who knew someone and a group of us got one of the sky boxes. Very cool, but now I'm spoiled. Linganore did a great job and beat the Huntingtown Hurricanes 31-14. Roads were a little slick coming home and we saw a few cars (and one big truck) off the road on I70, but with care all went smoothly and we got home safely.
Earlier that same day Catoctin HS beat Joppatown for the State 1A championships, so I think that makes it the first time two state football titles have been brought in by Frederick County teams.
Sunday would have been a good day to ride, but I ended up doing a re-org in the garage to be able to fit both motorcycle and truck inside now that winter has arrived, after which I took the number one son to his football banquet. I look at myself in amusement at my support and enthusiasm for his participation in the program after my years of athletic ambivalence, but he's having fun, staying in shape and learning a good bit, so I'll keep up my enthusiasm.
