I ate a cupcake, they did an Ironman…
This past weekend, I was in Madison for several reasons. I made my second stop on the tailgating tour, turned 25, and watched two of my friends complete their first Ironman triathlon. The Ironman is 140.6 miles of swimming, biking and running. Pretty much what I need to do after …

The Gawd Awful in Salt Lake City
Salt Lake City. It is the capital of Utah and was home to the 2002 Winter Olympics. I must admit, I only found out that it was the home of the University of Utah a few hours before Brett and I arrived. I would not say Salt Lake City qualifies as a college town, but since I was …

While in Chapel Hill, I heard that I needed to visit Top of the Hill. The problem at first was finding it. I heard that it was located on Franklin St, but what I was not told was to look up. Normally you would find a Franklin St restaurant on street level. Well, Top of the Hill …
