Trip To West Point

On Saturday, David and I joined a group of people from his Cub Scout Pack for an Army football game at West Point.  It was a really terrific atmosphere, with the cannons, cadets doing pushups after each Army score, and the roving spirit band (which actually stopped for a few minutes and played in the section we were sitting in).  West Point is a really beautiful place, and is only a little over an hour from Mountain Lakes.  The game was really wild, with tons of scoring and over 1,000 yards of combined total offense by the two teams.  Unfortunately, for the home fans, Army lost the game 49-39 to the Tulsa Golden Hurricanes (ponder for a moment that odd choice of mascot). 

We will definitely be going back when Tulane visits West Point again in two years.
