The Elusive Golden Bear

When I took a trip over the weekend to visit the flea markets in Kutztown, Pa – I didn’t just end my adventure with pillaging for buried treasures. No, there was another reason to travel north – to hunt for the elusive Golden Bear.

See Mom and Dad both attended Kutztown University, home of the Golden Bear – a magical creature I’m sure, and I was dead set on finding said bear.

But before I could head to campus in search of my Golden Bear I took a trip downtown where I took a nap on the sidewalk as mom and dad ate lunch. I must say, I attracted quite a few college students with my stunning good looks, but that was to be expected.

After lunch I made my way to campus where I began my search for the golden bear.

I searched high and low for my bear.

I really thought my bear would be in the school fountain too – on account of how hot it was – but sadly no bear here.

Then just when I was about to declare the golden bear as truly elusive – he decided to sneak up behind me.

Oh Golden Bear, you’re just as glorious as I expected.

Tuesday Night Lights

Last night I attended my very first men’s college soccer game at the University of Delaware.

As fascinating as it was to watch the Blue Hens play Lafayette, I actually didn’t attend the game specifically to watch the men’s soccer team play. (sorry boys).

Nope, I actually had my eye on the sidelines for a good part of the time.

See the girl on the end there? That’s my Aunt Laurel – and she’s a senior in the Athletic Training Program at the University of Delaware. So while the boys were busy trying to score goals, Laurel was tending to bloody noses, helping hobbling players off the field and icing legs. Pretty cool right?

In fact I was so excited to come support the team that I even wore my blue and gold winter coat (you know, in Delaware colors).

Everyone thought I was the BIGGEST fan ever…..I didn’t argue, because no one has to know it was my very first game. hehe.

 

You can check out the game day recap here (sadly UD lost) but it’s still fun to look at the senior appreciation photo up top where my Aunt Laurel is pictured second to last on the right.
