My bracket is totally toast. Now i'm just hoping not to take last

Well another March has come and almost gone. As always it has been madness in more than one way. Before I get to the basketball tournament, let's talk Spring Break. For Spring break this year I decided that it would be an opprotune time to go out and visit my beautiful sister Staci and her Husband in North Carolina! First off I had never been to North Carolina (NC), so encompassed in that is I had never been out to visit them at their place. They moved out there about a year and half ago while I was on my mission while he goes to NC state for School. So I went out there and had a total blast! It was so much fun to just be able to hang out with them for a while. There were so many adventures, and trips that made it even better, but even if we did nothing but just hang out with each other all day it still would have been a blast.

Here is a picture of us in our box seat that we got for free, at the performing arts center in Raleigh. This was a St. Pats day showing of the Irish Tenors. We had the best seats in the house, and we weren't even dressed for it! We literally showed up at the building to take a look around, a very nice gentlemen asked us if we would like to see a show? We said, yes he took us in, asked Staci if she would like to sit in the box seats, and she immediatly said YES! (Good Job Stac) And there we were sitting right above the Irish tenors.

Here is a picture of Cameron Indoor Stadium (Where Duke plays) What shocked me about this stadium was just how small it was! It is tiny compared to most stadiums, and they definitely make it an atmosphere. It was fun to see the championship banners hanging from the rafters, and just feel of the tradition that there is there.

This is in the Tobacco District. Lucky strike was a huge Tobacco company, and all that water you see behind me flowing is all water they would use to put out fires that would happen when they were drying the Tobacco leaves.

Part of our travels took us to Washington DC, Annapolis and Salisbury Maryland, (Annapolis is where the Naval acadamy is), and to Delaware! Yes I have been to Delaware, and i'm glad we went 10 minutes out of our way to get there. So here is some pics from that,

The New WW2 memorial. So cool!

(Love the Washington monument.)

This is in front of a statue of Brigham Young. Each state is allowed to put 2 statues in the capitol and we chose Brigham Young. This is also the location we lost our tour guide and started to wander around aimlessly by ourselves until we found another tour guide.
The changing of the guard. This is a super special ceremony and tradition of our country. The inscription might be too small to read but it reads: Here rests in honored glory, An American Soldier, known but to God.
This is a Toll Bridge-Tunnel-Bridge-Tunnel-Bridge. It was 21 miles long and the name really implies what it does. It also was a $12 toll Bridge! The toll booth attendant didn't like Ryans questions nearly as much as I did. He asked if there was refreshments half way across? I am still cracking up about that even now as I type this.
Last but not least, a picture in front of the goat, or possibly ram, I can't remember of the midshipmen. There we are the intrepid crew. Thanks for the fun trip Ryan and Staci! I loved it, and it was awesome. Even despite spending my night in New York, still totally worth it. :) Love you guys.
