January 14 – 16th


Saturday – Travel Day
Columbus > Greenville, SC > Clemson, SC

Mom took me to the airport… flew to Detroit, had about 2 hours in the Skyclub.

Sat on runway waiting to be de-iced for over an hour.  Good times.  It’s almost as if the 20 degree temps in January (in Detroit) caught the ground crew by surprise!?

The drive to Clemson is around 45 minutes.  I stopped midway at a Publix and got a Boar’s Head sub to eat once I got to the hotel.

Arrived at hotel just after 10p.  Checked in, ate sub, and was asleep by 11.

Sunday – Game Day
6 Duke vs Clemson
Even though I had 8 hours of sleep, which is rare for me, I so did not want to get up this morning.  Very unlike me.

I stumbled to the lobby in my PJs in search of coffee.  Which I had difficulty finding.  Of course I was busted by one of my truck engineers.  I knew this would bring mocking later in the day.




Had lunch at Mellow Mushroom which is just a few blocks from the arena.  It took quite a while, but it was yummy!  I only ate half…  knowing full well that it was MORE than enough AND that I would be hungry later tonight.

Game was good.  For a while it looked like Clemson was actually going to defeat Duke…  but that didn’t end up happening.

After the game, I headed back to Greenville to a hotel by the airport.  Ate the rest of my lunch and then headed to bed.

Monday – Travel Day
Greenville, SC > Charlotte, NC > Columbus

Uneventful trip home.
