Grace's 800m Run...

Last weekend we drove out to Hutchinson, Kansas, for the Kansas State Track meet. It was an extremely stormy, rainy day but it cleared up right before Grace's event... and then it started to POUR just a few minutes before her race started. Grace had a great time (and didn't mind the rain) and placed 12th in the event. I don't know what her time was since I was trying to snap pictures while Guy kept the camera (as well as four people) dry. No one had a free hand to try to time the race. Anastasia had fun running in another 50m fun run too. Hopefully I can get some new pictures posted soon.

After the track meet we toured the Space museum in the Cosmosphere (which conveniently was located next to the track).

On the way home we dodged storms and even passed a storm chaser team. Normally I am on alert for cops but this time I watched for tornados.

Now we are in a heat wave. The a/c runs nonstop. Yesterday we lost power for a little while. It's so hot the pool is like bath water and doesn't really feel "cool".
