Go Canes!


To kick off the college football season, we attended the Hurricanes games last night, their first game in Dolphin stadium. This is cool, because last fall, the boys and I went to the last game in the Orange Bowl (which has subsequently been demolished). It was a blast. Even Cameron lasted three quarters. The boys screamed themselves hoarse doing the C-A-N-E-S ...... CANES!!! cheer and loved watching the Canes beat up on poor Charleston Southern. It makes watching a football game fun, especially for a couple of pre-teen young men, when every time your team gets the ball, they score a touchdown. Throw in a punt-return that was run back also, and you've got some pretty excited boys. Cameron was enthralled searching for Sebastian, the Canes mascot, repeatedly asking me "Where's the bird?" It was very cute. As a University of Miami graduate, it is fun to have a nationally recognized and televised team to follow, so when we move in a couple weeks, we'll still be able to cheer on the Canes.
