Badgers Women's Basketball Game

 

This morning Travalon felt very bad, so he went back to bed, and I went for a long rosary walk instead of going to Mass without him. Eventually he got up and felt a bit better, so we went to the Badgers women's basketball game. I had gotten free tickets through work for the game, and it was a very family-friendly affair with lots of kids, more so than then men's games. However, unlike men's games, they didn't have pizza. We hadn't eaten lunch yet, so I was getting close to panic mode until we found a concession stand selling macaroni and cheese besides the nachos and soft pretzels the others were selling. The game was really good, and a girl originally from Prague got 25 points. They beat Michigan, which was ranked 12th in the country, so it was very exciting. Here are some photos. First, the Dale Chihuly glass sculptures in the front entrance.

Here are photos of the game.

After the game we went to Mass, then we went to Rich's house. I saw two bright planets like a pair of eyes staring at me from the sky, so I told Rich he had to come out and tell me what was going on. He said it was Jupiter and Venus, and that someone else had called him about it too. I took a photo, but to the right there is a greenish artifact that looks brighter than the two planets.

Kathbert was already there, frosting Prairie Man's birthday cake, and she said she had noticed the planets on her walk over. She and Rich had made an angel food cake for Prairie Man, whose actual birthday was today. We had a very pleasant, small birthday party for him tonight. Happy birthday, Prairie Man!
