Another Active and Exciting Weekend

Sunday will be my day of rest, but my Friday and Saturday were both a lot of fun. Friday night, several students from the Ithaca LA program, and even some alumni, went to the Dodgers-Padres game at Dodger Stadium. It was another relatively boring game, with the final score being 2-0, but we all had a great time and got to see some awesome fireworks on the field once again. Here are some pictures from the game:

As for Saturday, a bunch of us went bowling at Pickwick Bowl, which is about a 5-10 minute drive from the Oakwoods. We all had a great time, and there was even some friendly wagering going on. Let's just say, I got a free dinner because I finished more than 50 points higher than someone (I finished 51 higher to be exact). I'd like to say I bowled pretty well, finishing with scores of 151 and 168 in the two games. It was an enjoyable afternoon for everyone who went!

The best part of the weekend though was probably celebrating the start of another new Bombers Football season. While I am sad that I am not in Ithaca to cover the team and call games, I still got a thrill from listening to the game on the radio. The guys over at 92 WICB do a great job putting the game on the air, and I'm proud to have been a part of that for two seasons. You should all take a listen on Saturday afternoons! By the way, Ithaca won 45-0 over St. Lawrence which made it even sweeter. Great start Bombers!!
