12th Man Posse

So, everyone knows what a HUGE football fan my husband is. Well - it was just 'his luck' that our nephew happened to be planning a guy-trip to San Fran to see the SEAHAWKS vs. 40 Whiners game this weekend, and it 'just so happened' that one of the original posse members could not go - so who got invited? You guessed it! SEA-SLASH himself.

The story begins Tuesday night, when I get a phone call (at the same moment I was calling him) because at the same time - from different locations we both read an email inviting Troy on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. So - by Thursday night he was packing his bags, golf clubs, and tailgating garb to attend such a worthy event. As I dropped him off at the nephews door - all I could say was 'YOU BETTER SEND ME SOME DARN GOOD PICTURES'.

Today at work - while I tried endlessly to clean off my desk ... my phone kept dinging with 12th Man Posse updates. Yes, it had taken the full 12+ hours to drive straight thru. Yes, it was the typical drive through WA, OR, CA - with the standard 55mph if you just so happen to be pulling a utility trailer (someone found that out the hard way) and YES - if you give men the opportunity they will do just about anything in the name of NFL football.

After several text messages back in forth - the photos started showing up. They had made it safely to the condo and had decorated appropriately. They had unpacked and made sure that everything was prepared for a full day of GOLF tomorrow morning. Then, from what I can tell - they set off ... touring the local wine fields in search of a casino that someone probably promised them was nearby.

I hope you are having fun honey - and when you get home we are going to discuss that next trip you are taking me on! :)
