10.2007: week 2

Took a little road trip down to Clemson, SC this weekend with Kim’s family. College football rivalries are always referred to in unkind terms. Not so in Clemson. Some of the nicest fans in all of sports cheer for the Tigers in this town. Wearing Hokie gear, I heard, “Welcome to Clemson, good to have you here!” no less than a dozen times walking through downtown Clemson, around the stadium, and postgame on the way out.

The highlight of the trip, aside from seeing the Hokies hand one to the Tigers, was catching up with Daniel. We caught up with him postgame after he had performed all of his ROTC duties.
