Detours

Sunday's trip home from Stowe got a bit interesting for 2 of our 4 vans. Here's a map by Spencer illustrating the various detours:
As you can see, one van went north instead of south on 89, finally realizing their error as they approached the Canadian border. They then made it home with only a minor mishap in Lebanon as they mistook 91 for 93 - could've happened to anyone. Credit for the excursion to Massachusetts belongs to an unnamed coach. Only coaches not graduating from Harvard and members of Coach Slovenski's Van Driver Hall of Fame made it home unscathed.

Good training this week in spite of a mini-thaw across New England. Yesterday was perfect purple klister conditions - my favorite. Let's hope that Oak Hill looks like this on Friday...

Purple klister? Not my choice.

Erroneous! I was able to resist the pull of the Bay State, but just barely. We never crossed the border.
