"Home of the Cobbers"

Maybe that should be "...the Fightin' Cobbers." I'm not sure, and it's difficult to tell from the mascot pictured on the Concordia College athletics site (though he looks husky enough, he sure doesn't appear to be mean-- in fact, there's an "Aw, shucks..." look about him-- but I'll bet that if you called him yellow, he could give you quite an earful!). When we first got here, there were bottles of "Cobber Water" available. Naturally, I had to inquire within as to just WHAT, exactly, a Cobber is. Well, I guess every city and town across this great land of ours is home to something, so why not the (Fightin'?) Cobbers of Moorhead, MN?

Now, I suppose, I need to find out what Fargo's known for (besides that movie).

Slow blog day.
