Saturday's a Rugby Day!
Oh, how I have missed joining the Scylla for indoor practices and the Nash Bash tournament. Today I was able to join them (thankfully the rain ended before the game) for the first match of the Spring Season in the Midwest.
It was an early morning, meeting the girls at the Park N Ride bright and early and starting the 2.5 hr drive to Manhattan, IL. It was a great day… so awesome to be back with the rugby girls and happy to get a few hours of road trip with Heather.
Scylla won! It was a friendly (non-league game) and a great way to extend on the success from winning Nash Bash and preparing for our league game next weekend back at home.

Ever drove between Milwaukee and Chicago on I-94? If you have recently, you know the Cheese Castle. We stopped on our way home from the rugby game and had a blast exploring this place. The clientele are 'interesting', but the cheese is awesome! We recommend the grilled cheese from the grill. A must have is the Cheese Fudge… OMG, that is some yummy stuff!
After a short nap, we made it out to The Bubbler for Erin's b-day celebration and watching the Badgers play in the Elite 8.
Sadly, I got very light headed and dizzy not long after we got to the bar. Didn't pass out this time… thankfully! Heather, Park, and Joe got me hydrated and safely to the car. Lesson learned today… I can't keep going like the energizer bunny, like I'm used to doing. Drive to IL, rugby game, rugby social, drive back to MKE, Cheese Castle and NCAA March Madness in a bar = too much.
