Our Trip to Blacksburg -- Some Thoughts...
My three boys; Jimmy '08, Brady and Conor (son-in-law) and my Dad, Jim Small (former Detroit Tiger) made the trek to Blacksburg yesterday to see the Fighting Irish take on the Hokies. Here are my random thoughts about our experience:
We spent Friday night at the home of 2x NASCAR Truck Champion, Todd and Janet Bodine. They were world-class hosts.
We left their home in Mooresville, NC around 11:30 AM for the 2+ hour drive to Blacksburg
We parked in the middle of campus (for free) -- about a half to 3/4 mile walk away from the Stadium. (This turned out to be a big mistake after the game)
It's a beautiful campus, located on a great piece of real estate.
