Stanford Football in Washington

I went to the Stanford UW game. My tickets from one of the Stanford coach's my parents know fell through, but I found a cheap front row ticket near the Stanford section. Wahoo! 

From my seat
Watching the coach (in black) rev up the team
All pro Seahawks Richard Sherman and receiver Doug Baldwin were on the field for the coin toss for Stanford.
The most popular devensive player in the NFL, Richard Sherman, in the beanie, came over and gave me a high 5!


That's how close I was. It was so fun!
Celebrating the win!
Coach Shaw is relieved!
The team's quarterback celebrating the big win at UW.
Pretty sad for 70,000 UW fans. Pretty exciting for us 100 Stanford fans!

Fish Patchery Fun

It's October and the Salmon have returned. Rachel and I went to see it all happen.



This video is where the salmon wait to go up into the fish ladder as they try to make it up river


These videos show them collecting, whacking, milking, and taking the eggs from the fish.






Pretty cool. These are all volunteers. You should sign up!
