9AM sharp start so we were out the door at 730 to pick up Lizzie and get off to The Summerfest Venue on Lake Michigan. It was 50 and sunny and we had a cover over the amphitheater so it all seemed like the formula for a great morning.
First time using this venue for Marquette as I understand it. The 9AM start was in the 930/945 range. The amphitheater being a cement structure with a roof held in the chill of the morning and the lake. And after we sat awhile the wind picked up - it was just COLD.
And even without the late start we had a long morning ahead. Almost 2000 graduates and Lizzie's college was the last one on the list.......
Many great parts of the day - but, it was a long cool one until we saw Lizzie make her trip across the stage.
And me planning to be under the roof meant I forgot the hat and have some sun to remember the day by as well for the next few - and I think I am still warming up....
