Home Sweet Home

Well, they said you will have nights like that, and man, did we have a night. What was a GREAT week in San Diego, with GREAT weather, turned into a rainy awful night at Qualcomm Stadium for the Wildcats.

The team charter arrived back in Tucson early this afternoon to a very nice warm sunny weather. As nice as our hotel was, and even with all the GREAT hospitality from the Red Coats, it is still nice to be sitting at home.

Below are pictures of our day yesterday at Qualcomm.
