Drove to Arlington Heights this morning and had an excellent breakfast at Bob's house. We were joined by his nephew Chris, also a Northern Illinois grad, only a lot more recent.
Evanston is particularly beautiful this time of the year, along with those gorgeous homes. We parked to the west of Green Bay Road and walked over to Ryan Field and took our seats along the 30 yard line on the east side.
We were near the Indiana cheering section and they had lots to yell about in the first part of the game. I mean, LOTS. The first play from scrimmage and a Hoosier ran 70 yards for a touchdown. before long, it was 21-0.
Northwestern finally got a field goal, but on the ensuing kickoff, another Indiana touchdown and a 28-3 lead.
Fortunately, it hadn't rained, but the seats were wet, plus it was quite cool and overcast with a breeze, so we were really considering leaving.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
