Full disclosure, I spent the past week poolside in sunny Arizona soaking up a North Idaho winter's worth of Vitamin D. It wasn't terrible to experience 90-degree temperatures while everyone at home was getting ready to hunker down for the rest of fall and the long snowy winter ahead.

But being away I missed the Friday Night Lights of my home team, Post Falls Trojans hosting my alma mater, Coeur d'Alene Vikings. Thanks to technology, I was able to catch some of the game online. But even a balmy October evening on the patio in the desert is no substitution for being bundled up in the bleachers under a harvest moon, enjoying a hot dog with mustard, while everyone from Post Falls and Coeur d'Alene are cheering the teams on.
