5 Lori and Cambryee

Night Out

2005-09-26T11:04:00.000-05:00

Aaron and I realized we hadn't been 'out' since classes started. This Friday we went to a wedding for a classmate Becca. The line of people are Norwegian folk dancing. After that we landed at a mom'n'pop Italian place called Mama's. We split a large meal (only $6.50) and brought home leftovers. Following this we went to the Gast Haus. Throughout the evening we were with Kris, Lori, Jen and Karen. Ahh, what a night.

Finally away from Luther and look what happens! We get the biggest hotdog we can. Why can't the caf make food like this? Oh, maybe because the caf would charge double what we paid at the game to serve something that good.
