hecklers.


yesterday a few friends and myself road tripped to platteville, wisconsin to watch the football team play uw-plateville. a town literally in the middle of corn fields. there aren't even highways to get you to this place, all back roads. which definitely makes for the best kind of road trip. a three hour drive quickly turned into a 4 hour drive because as women we have to stop every half hour for a restroom/coffee break or a photo opp in some quaint town along the way. jess, obsessed with her new-found love of instagram, took pictures of every possible person/place/thing on the trip. my personal fave was the picture morgan took of the rest of us at the wisconsin border sign from literally 100 yards away. good thing the zoom quality is so clear.it was definitely worth the trip. it turned out to be a great game and as predicted a huge thunder storm hit platteville as wheaton defeated the pioneers 23-14 (for all of you non-wheatoners, that was my attempt at a really lame joke to use our mascot as figuratively as possible). i felt like a proud parent watching one of my sons out there playin. i found myself cheerin and jumpin out of my seat like it was second nature.
