Good afternoon! This is the lady reds reporting to you from Miami of Ohio. Our journey started yesterday afternoon in lovely Kenosha, Wisconsin. Our scheduled departure time was 12:30 pm but seeing as we are women, we had to push it back an extra hour to give us more time to pack, do our hair, and look pretty for our what was supposed to be a 5-6 hour drive. We all arrived at the TARC to find lovely easter baskets from our fellow RedMen and Lady Red swimmers (thanks everyone!!!).
So after we each stuffed our 10 bags into the van, Dani and Sue started debating on whether or not to use JUST a map to get us to Ohio. Sue lost, so Dani ran into the office and mapquested our adventure. While Dani was searching, we 'hid' the 15 passenger van behind a snow mound. But little did we know, our wonderful graduate assisstant is too smart for us and could see our monstrous van from the TARC doors. oops!
Our adventure began. Michelle passed out within a minute of leaving. Amanda was constantly yelling at Carolyn to stay awake and talk to her. Dani kept rolling her eyes at us because she was ALREADY annoyed with us. Sue was very focused on driving making sure she hit EVERY pothole. Sarah tried to fit her 'daddy long legs' in a small crevice many times before hitting Carolyn in the head. Alyssa read the whole trip while throwing in a witty comment here and there.
3 hours later.... Michelle wakes up and decides its a good idea to play I spy.
Sarah, "I looooveee I spy"
Alyssa, "what, I spy a farm?"
We are all dying at this point from laughter.
Then we got bored and went back to sleep.
5 hours later... we stop at a gas station to take a pee break and for Sue to get some coffee. We found some Prego for Sarah but unfortunately it was MEAT SAUCE!!! We almost got hit by a car walking back to the van. Not gonna lie, we were kind of excited to get a moment of silence at nationals for being killed in a gas station parking lot.
Once back on the road, alive, we hit a little traffic. Sue decided that she did not want to wait and to take an hour long detour into the middle of nowhere. We pulled over at church and Dani suggested that Amanda get out.
We finally found the road again and Carolyn decided it was a good idea to sit backwards in her seat. Amanda became extremely concerned and suggested that she buckle up. Not even 10 seconds later, Sue slams on the brakes nearly rear ending the car in front of us and Carolyn smashed into the back of Dani's seat, nearly giving her whiplash. "It's always a good idea to take advice from a freshman" -Amanda
7.5 hours after leaving Kenosha, we finally hit civilization and arrived at Jimmy Johns. Did you know that the guy who started Jimmy Johns went to Michelle's high school and spoke at her graduation? His real name is Leotoad, crazy huh?! So after hearing the whole biography of Leotoad James John, we were ready to fill our tummys!!!
So now that you have experienced our entire van ride with us, we think we will wrap this little guy up. Tune in next time for some more good times with the Lady Reds National Team. Next on the agenda: FREE STUFF and FREE FOOD!!!

P.S. Did you know, the bars open at 5:30 am tomorrow for green beer day? Can't wait to see all the intoxicated college students.
P.S.S. Carolyn beat Amanda in a sandwich eating contest. But there will be a rematch soon to come b/c Amanda can't stand losing.
