Saturday, Oct. 1 2011
We started the day bright and early with the van full all the way to the top. We still don't know how we survived those hours in good ol' van 64. One of our freshmen cuddled with her Sully stuffed animal... The music obviously included many Justin Beiber songs thanks to the fans on the team... The rest of us pretty much enjoyed the time to sleep!!!  

The practice round started with the delicious California strawberries... All the way to our encounter with "Stella" the small but energetic dog in the middle of the golf course, where Coach enjoyed taking some pictures of the action!!! 

All in all, it was a good day followed by a delicious dinner at Rosa's Italian Restaurant. Now it's time to rest up for tomorrow. Were looking forward to teeing it up! Don't forget to tune in tomorrow for an update with the results...

Go Broncos!
