Fighting Sioux



The Fighting Sioux Hockey team is the greatest thing in Grand Forks (except for Ross, of course). Hands down. The Sioux bring this town together like none other. On game days you are hard pressed to find someone who isn't wearing Sioux gear and who hasn't talked about the game at least once that day.

A couple weeks ago Kris and her boyfriend Josh came up for a game with Jenny and Quinn. They had rockin' tickets. Ross and I scrounged up a couple tickets too. Which is the great thing about people here, someone is always looking to get rid of a few, and are usually generous enough not to charge you for them.

All the boys had one too many drinks, but Ross could barely keep his eyes open by the end of the game. This was actually a pretty big game and the Sioux were winning almost the whole game until...
They scored, and tied it up, while we were trying to take a picture, which ended up like that. Nice one Ross.
I made him try again.

Mi Mexico

Grand Forks just got a new restaurant!! Which is a pretty big deal. The parking lot is full from the moment it opens to the time it closes, every single day!

Ross and I went a couple weeks ago and I wasn't too impressed. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt though because it was pretty late at night and they had just opened that week. So...Jess and I went for lunch today. I had the exact same thing (to do a fair analysis) and it was delicious!

Last time the chips were oily and not crisp, this time the opposite was true. It was yummy! What is the best thing at Mi Mexico you may ask?
The Guacamole, that's what!!!!

If you're ever in GF and craving Mexican food, check it out! It's right by the old Leevers in the old Hardees (obviously nothing can stay open in GF) on the corner of Washington and DeMers.
