NCAA Tournament

This year they are having the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 games here in Salt Lake. I was debating whether or not to buy tickets to the games. I thought it would be fun to go. I was talking to a friend at work and he said we should go. Anyway an hour later he called and said he had 4 tickets to Thursday's games. So 3 of us from work went and Jake's cousin.

Both games were really good. We saw a #1 seed get upset which was fun. The second game between Xavier and Kansas State was awesome. I think I read there were 13 ties and 17 lead changes during the game. It was really intense and went into double overtime. It was a lot of fun. Wish the stadium would have been more crowded though. Large crowds at sporting events always make them more fun.
Jackie took our nephew Tyler on a date while I was at the games. They went to California Pizza Kitchen and saw Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightening Thief. They both had a lot of fun hanging out and Jackie now wants to read the book that the movie is based off of.

On the way to the game I hit 100,000 miles on my car. I thought as long as I have the camera, I might as well document this momentous occasion. I have had this car from the beginning and have had many fun trips in it. Anyways I thought it was cool when it was at 99,999.....

And then 100,000

CJ you are so funny. I can't believe you have that many miles. It has been a good car for you. At least you won't be racking up too many miles to visit your mother. Love you.
