For the first time in the past few years, our daughter will not be attending the Pre-Dig Gig. She will be in California looking at grad schools. She's disappointed about the timing.

I am hopeful, however, that our son will be coming with us this year. He hasn't given up hunting like his sister has.

Grad schools? In California?

Whats wrong with schools in normal places like here? HUh? HUh?

What area is she going to pursue?

One of her choices is here - but she would love to be where it's warmer.

She wants to go into youth and family ministry - focusing on adoption issues.

I'm going to head for the sheets. Work returns tomorrow morning and the weekend will be busy. No sense being sleep deprived yet.

Goodnight and SCDs!

Is the State Fairgrounds off limits?

I understand the Vulcan coming out is at the State Fairgrounds.

Why would they have the coming out at the State Fairgrounds if it was off limits?

That is actaully a good thing, because nothing is better than a wardrobe malfunction among friends in a park!

Downtown Dave isn't really downtown though. He's more Highland Hubby now I think.

Actually, you may have to imagine that, Med2k. I now live about as far away from the Pioneer Press office as one can get and still be in St. Paul.

It's been fun, but I think my days as first online with the clue are done.

I think last night too. If I were hiding it I would place it right before a decent snowfall.

With all the snowless winters, I'm surprised the cluewriter hasn't caught on to camoflage duck tape. :eek:
