Sunrise on the Saugatuck

I recentlty had to pull over on my way to work and take these pictures. So taken by the veiw as I passed by I turned around and caught the moment.

The air became very cold very early this morning and as the sun came up this was the stage for day break.

New York Jets vs Kansas City Chiefs

We were recently gifted mezzanine box seats and club passes from a nice Hungarian family we know. The seats were perfect on the sunny side of the stadium.
It started out as a guys day kinda thing and as three of the players dropped out I filled in the replacements with my wife and two kids.
Mrs. cheese is a sports fan squared and it was my 6 year old daughters first game. My son at 11 was comfortable to hang by himself and soak up the fan atmosphere in the stadium. The Jets fans are loyal and kind. You won't go hungry if you forget to pack before the game.
We had a great time as a family and the memories are still fresh in our minds. These are the good things you keep as a father.
The Jets won by 4 and it was everyone on their feet at the end. The best.
We finished off with a hot pretzel from a street vendors shopping cart and we were on our way back home.

NEW YORK JETS! JETS! JETS!

Jazzed by the green machine

My youngest dons the jersy my son wore at his first game. This being her first the experiance was as treasured for mother and I as I am sure it was for her. She was in awe from the crowd and the team spirit. She wore the jersy to bed and after two days with it on mother had to take it from her. A fan is born.

Here ya go!

Brett Favre does a pitch back after a play. I still can't believe he with green. There are alot of those cheese hats around the stadium that the fans were using for drink trays.

Brett your ass

Brett took em to the mountain. Defense took em home.

Our master of ceremonies

The first rule of Jets Club is no talks about Jets Club. Just my brother in law who is the Jet pooba in the clan. More games bro!

The worst part of any of these events is the public toilet but it't hard to avoid and the young ones must learn.

New York Jets Flight Crew

I feel safer now. My air mask just deployed and something is inflating. It won't be long till touchdown comes.

Flight Crew

Interesting uniforms.

The flight crew

I always loved the green jelly beans, yum.

OUR DOG KENO

OUR DOG KENO

Ode to Keno

Goodbye ol' friend, your howl carries on the wind the malamute song of freedom and peace, your eyes gently squinted as you drank up the wind in your face. Your haunt lays silent and the emptiness of your loss weighs heavy on this cold rainy morn, good luck ol' boy.
