Trip to Charlottesville, Virginia


Marian, Lora Rookard and I hit the road on December 21 and headed for Charlottesville, Virginia. Our goal was to visit with our friend, Marco Harris. We met Marco when he was the Director of Operations for the University's basketball team. Lora, Juli Raines and I became good friends with Marco while he was here. Since he moved to California to do the same job with their basketball program, we have stayed in touch. We wanted to go see him, but we couldn't swing the price of the plane tickets. I discovered his team was playing the University of Virginia, so we decided to go. Juli couldn't get away but Lora, Marian and I went. We had a great time! The University campus is beautiful. The town was quaint. Marco gave us front row tickets right behind the bench. Turns out one of our Women's basketball coaches came to the game and was seated right next to us. Our families had fun watching us on television. The game went into overtime and Cal lost but UVa was in the top five so Cal did a great job.
