Hoosier Daddy

Back in Indiana this week. This time - it's Purdue University north of Indianapolis. The reason I live in the deep south is obvious to me here. It is so cold here (just above freezing) and it's overcast and dreary. Here's a photo I took out of the stadium window that illustrates the dreary feel of this area in the winter.


When we started work this morning, the field was not in very good condition due to the large amount of rain that has fallen in the area over the last 4 days. They had golf carts going around the field with blowers on them to dry the field out. Here's a photo of the field painting crew putting the hash marks on the field.



This school (a Big Ten school) has no lights for the stadium and so around 6 pm, we couldn't do any more work so we packed up for the evening. It's a noon game on saturday and so we have to be back at the stadium early. We'll finish up with plenty of time.

I'm enjoying my new phone and the camera ROCKS. Check out the photo below. It's pretty amazing quality for nightime on a camera phone.
