Notre Dame vs BYU 2005

October 20-24th 2005

Greg traveled to visit his brother Randy and his wife Deb. Deb, a nurse, hooked Greg up with tickets to the BYU Notre Dame game on the 22nd. She told Greg there was an extra incentive to come (as if he needed more?) in that Greg's nephews Mitchell & Dallin were to receive their Eagle Scout awards at a court of honor the Friday night before the game.  How could I resist?  Here are the "raw" pictures I took. I didn't take the time to label them for now... maybe later.  Thanks Deb for setting this up, and Thanks Randy for the good times. I will mostly miss my nephew Matthew as we became good "buds" on this trip.
