Stepping Foot on "Sacred" Ground...

This past Saturday, Abie Curry (now Abie Bacon) and her now husband, Aaron, held their SoCal Reception at no better place than Abie's work...the Rose Bowl! So, you might be guessing, what is the "sacred" ground? well, despite the rain, Abie took us out on the field so we could walk on the grass in the Rose Bowl stadium, which I learned that night is the oldest football stadium in our country! Pretty cool, huh?! Then, the other "sacred" ground we got the privilege of walking on was into the UCLA football players' locker room. I knew my dad would be jealous, the big UCLA fan that he is. =) After spending a few minutes in the locker room, taking in the aura of it, an alarm started to sound....you should've seen the look on our eyes....and I was with Don Allen! We thought we were little kids caught in trouble, but needless to say, it wasn't our fault, it was the smoke alarm set off by the smoke machine in the room where the reception was going on. =)
That was a memory I will remember for a while though.
