Life at The Ohio

We are all continuing to adjust to things here in Ohio.  Ohio itself is fabulous.  We really like the area, the enormous trees, how green everything is.  The biggest adjustment might be all the red that people wear in their pride for OSU.  For those of you who do not know, THE Ohio State University (yes, that is what it is called, and yes that is what people call it.  "Hey, where do you go to school?"  "I go to THE Ohio state university" "Ah yes, As opposed to the OTHER Ohio State University....) has a football field that seats 103,000.  Well, they ALWAYS oversell, and so every Saturday 108,000 red wearing crazies are crammed snugly into the football stadium.  We live about 3 miles away from the stadium and have made the mistake of trying to get on the freeway on game day.  Not the brightest idea. Despite all of this, Andrew and I still want to go to a game.  It's bound to be different from our good ol' BYU football games (ra ra, rarara, ra, ra rarara GOOOOOO COUGARS!)  First off, It is the OSU Buckeyes.  For those of you who don't know what a buckeye is, it is a nut, similar to an acorn, that falls off trees around here.  So...THATS an exciting mascott...
