Totally soaked, totally stoked!


This week at school, we've been celebrating homecoming. There are all sorts of activities, but my favorite is of course the football game (I guess whether it's homecoming or not). Sadly, our good ol' boys didn't do too well, only managing one touchdown. TCU is a great team and there were "ON" tonight and it unfortunately ended 38-7. But, not to dwell, this isn't what this post is supposed to be about.
Every year for BYU intramurals on homecoming week Saturday, we have a staff play-day/tailgate party where we don't schedule any intramural games so we as a staff can play. We do this every homecoming game. This year, even though our numbers were smaller than in the past, it was fun. We played some flag-football, volleyball, soccer, and even some ultimate. The weather was great, and with cloud cover, the sun wasn't blinding us. Right at about three o'clock when we called it a day, and the last few people were leaving the fields, it started to come down.

This isn't me, but it's sort of how it was! Fun eh?

There had been some off and on rain storms over the weekend and it came instantly. I had biked up to the fields, but I was prepared if there was crazy weather. As I said, the rain just started and it was full on within about 45 seconds. I had a windbreaker/water resistant jacket on as I biked home (which was only 2 miles away). As it poured, I got wetter and wetter. When I got home I could wring out my shorts which were partly shielded by my jacket so it created a cool gradient.
I think I was happy, just because I was able to get outside and play a bunch of sports. I was also happy that I was prepared so I could bike home in the rain. I appreciate my blessings of good health, and athleticism... and for rain! Thus, today- I was soaked, yet stoked!
