hot dogs, football and the U


Joel's friend from high school is now the President of the University of Utah. He is very kind to his high school friends, and we get invited to many things are the U. We were invited to the U game, and they played the University of New Mexico. Of course the U won, and it was an exciting game. The weather was mild, and comfortable. Before the game started, we had our choice of all kinds of food. We had Mexican food, drinks, cookies, and there was hot dogs available too. Grandson Parker ate more than the rest of us. He had at least three hot dogs, tons of cookies, lots of Mexican food, pop corn, ice cream, and more hot dogs. He had the best time. During half time, we were sitting next to Frank Layden. I started talking to him, and he was the best sport. He is so cute, and a true gentlemen. We had our pictures taken with him, and he asked us all our names and where we were from. He gave me his card and told me to send him a picture and he would authograph it and send it back. He said he only comes to Utah county two times a year, and that is to ferment his wine............... (get it: come to Utah county and you go way back in time......) Thanks to Mike Young for inviting us to the game and letting us spend some time in his presidential suite.
