Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

Luke 6:45

King James Version


Luke 6:45  A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌!

Welcome 🙏 to the most impressive Basketball 🏀 atmosphere that I didn’t know existed ! The students at Utah State University sure do put on a show in support of their Aggies !!

The number of college basketball arenas I have visited over the years is now well north of 200 and each experience has been unique. But nothing had me prepared for our Saturday morning 🌄 visit to the Gymnasium in Logan, Utah

Utah State University currently resides in the Mountain West Conference but is headed to the New look Pac – 12 next season and Aggie fans are excited about the pending move.

Was the atmosphere fueled by the opponent being rival San Diego State ? Was it fueled by the game being a showdown for the MWC regular season crown ? Quite possibly but regardless the reason why, it was AMPED.

Lin’s Jump Ball ( the one up top was hers as well)

How close is Logan, Utah to the Idaho border ? Close enough that you can smell the potatoes 🥔. The city averages over 50 inches of snow ❄ per winter.

You will notice that the attendance was 100% capacity for the game and there’s no doubt that the crowd helped create the victory for the Aggies!

The game was an 11:00 am local time tip so it could be showcased on CBS sports as a National game but the early start didn’t prevent the Student section from bringing the energy.

Current UVA Head Coach, Ryan Odum spent two seasons at the helm of the Aggies before  returning to the East Coast. The UVA aspect was interesting because of the full circle 🔵 loop of going from the school that made history back in 2018 by defeating the #1 seed to a few years later returning to coach said team.

If you ever find yourself in the vicinity of Logan, Utah in the winter time there are two things you should do. Say hello 👋 to the giant Bull out front and get a ticket 🎟 to see the Aggie students support their team !

Let’s call 📞 this one a Walk 🚶‍♂️ and a (Natty) Park…

Monday concluded with a 3.0 mile trek to cap off a 20,000 step 🚶‍♂️ day !

Sunday afternoon took us over to Capitol Reef National Park for the first time. The Northern half of the state of Utah is very different from where we are staying in the Desert 🏜. They are currently suffering from a lack of snow ❄ – insert laughter here.

This led to a drive 🚗 up to 10,000 feet in February where we shared a National Park with a dozen other people,in total.

Look close and you will see my face atop the sign.

Going to play ▶️ 7 degrees of separation here to circle 🔵 back to Carroll County

I believe that Jessica and Donnie visited this park in the past. Jabin is the Son of Jessica & Greg Talley. Greg Talley is a Kool Dude and he knows Cody Reece.

Cody Reece is celebrating his Birthday 🎂 today and now we get to say Happy Birthday to Cody !!!
