Documenting my travels and thoughts from around the country
2023 Week 11 (Pennsylvania & New York)
I wasn’t supposed to be home this weekend. In fact, I had not even considered what games I might do. Which led me to some usual places instead. For Friday, I figured I’d head to one of the WPIAL playoff games near home, but not particularly interested me. Continue reading “2023 Week 11 (Pennsylvania & New York)”
2023 Week 9 (Ohio & Pennsylvania)
With everything going on, I hadn’t really planned what games, if any, to do this weekend. Friday made the most sense. Since my daughter would be at it. Thursday wasn’t a concern. So, Friday evening I was at home in Ohio and made my way over to Stambaugh Stadium. Continue reading “2023 Week 9 (Ohio & Pennsylvania)”
2023 Week 8 (North Dakota)
This recap will be a bit briefer than most. Primarily because of some personal tragedy in my life. And though I’m not sure how many do read these recaps of mine, I’ve let them get a bit further behind. For Week 8, I was in North Dakota and managed to see four games over the weekend. Continue reading “2023 Week 8 (North Dakota)”
2023 Week 7 (Colorado)
After the last two weeks in Nebraska and Kansas, I moved west. For Week seven was three games in Colorado. For Thursday, there wasn’t many options, and one that I regret not taking advantage of given the outcome. However, the string of towns along I-70 from Seibert to Burlington have been on my mind for a while.

2023 Week 6 (Nebraska & Kansas)
Week 6 was looking to be a great weekend. I had the plans for anywhere from 3 to 5 games. But, I had settled on three. And then two, and then four, before passing Saturday night with just three games in Nebraska and Kansas. Continue reading “2023 Week 6 (Nebraska & Kansas)”
2023 Week 5 (Nebraska)
So after being in Wyoming for nearly a week, it was time to leave. The only issue was where to see games that weekend. There were Friday games in Wyoming. But ony one full Thursday game. Far from Laramie. So, I looked next door to Nebraska to see what was available. And there were a lot. Continue reading “2023 Week 5 (Nebraska)”
2023 Week 4 (Ohio & Illinois)
Week 4 was a hectic week. I was supposed to be in Wyoming. But, kept getting delayed leaving. So, I looked about my original schedule, and figured I’d see a game in Ohio. And one on the way. Saturday, too, if possible. Figuring maybe Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. As Saturday options in Iowa or Missouri weren’t exactly plentiful. Continue reading “2023 Week 4 (Ohio & Illinois)”
2023 Week 2 (Delaware & Maryland)
Week two was a trip to Delaware. That was the entire plan. My friend LCF and I were going to drive over Thursday morning. And arrive in time for the Thursday afternoon game at Abessinio Stadium. Continue reading “2023 Week 2 (Delaware & Maryland)”
2023 Week 1 (New Jersey)
After returning home to Ohio on Wednesday, I had less than 24 hours before heading to New Jersey. At least, that was my plan. As I had done last year, I was heading to the Battle at the Beach in Ocean City, New Jersey. Continue reading “2023 Week 1 (New Jersey)”
2023 Week 0 (Dakotas)
To start the season, I was in Fargo. I didn’t want to be. But, it was easier than going home and then driving right back. My plans to start the season had included my daughter. We were going to be on a road trip, just the two of us, as we have done the past two seasons. Continue reading “2023 Week 0 (Dakotas)”
