We woke up late at WalMart and got some home schooling done. We found a Krispy Kreme next door and stopped in for a little treat. I really am glad the Krispy Kremes in Sacramento closed down. I am totally addicted to Krispy Kreme. It is the one food that when it is in my presence I am totally out of control. I honestly can't just eat just one. I've never been a smoker, drug user or caffine addict but if I was surrounded by Krispy Kreme donuts on a day to day basis I would be 500 pounds. We unfortunately bought 2 dozen, first mistake! I have now put back every pound I have lost from my jogging. Enough about Krispy Kreme, if I keep talking about it I'm bound to head into the kitchen (I make it sound as if the kitchen is a second room far away) and get myself another one. Well, after Krispy Kreme (this is the 6th time I mentioned Krispy Kreme in one paragraph, make it 7) we did a bunch of errands...boring! Then we headed to Norte Dame to see why the Irish are so mad! The "Fighting Irish"...get it? I couldn't figure it out since the campus was so nice and peaceful. The buildings reminded me of England and the grounds were very clean and very green (lots of grass and trees). We saw touchdown Jesus and the tunnel that Rudy ran out of. Luckily we did not get kicked off the campus or beaten up by the fighting Irish due to Dave and Sterling wearing maroon and gold SC t-shirts and humming the SC fight on song (not to mention the gold SC emblem on the back of our maroon bummer)! Thanks goodness they didn't pull out the BIG SC flag and hang it out the window. Dave wanted me to mention at this point that Notre Dame's record in football last year was 3 wins, lots of losses (actually he just added that when he was editing). We pulled into a student parking lot and enjoyed a nice Irish dinner in our RV. Actually, I made Matza Ball soup. Kinda the same, Irish and Jewish, two highly religious groups. I even threw in some bread I bought from the Amish to round it out. After dinner we drove to Indiana Dunes State Park. Since it was so late we decided to hang in the RV and play a family game, Wits and Wagers (and eat another Krispy Kreme, 8). We are looking forward to playing in Lake Michigan in the morning and hopefully seeing the Chicago skyline in the distance.
p.s. I have a few pics but my internet connection is the weak so I will try to add the pics tomorrow.
