Well, we finally managed to get a full tank of gas in both cars and decided it was safe to head to the Clemson game (rumor was that there was more gas to be had in the upstate). We were eager to try out a new tailgating spot at The Parking Spot. We backed right up to the big grassy hill at the dike. The kids (and Jeff) loved having all of the grass to run around in without having to worry about any car traffic. Jeff & Carson played football, Molly hung out with her American Girl, the kids ran up and down the big hill, and we enjoyed tailgating with family & friends.

Going to a Clemson game is a much longer outing now that we live in North Augusta. We left at 6:30 am and didn't get back until 7:45 pm. 5 hours in the car is A LOT different than the 2 hours we are used to but still worth it. Fortunately, as the kids get older, they last longer and longer in the games and have always been championship tailgaters.
