Baseball Action

It was a HOT Saturday afternoon in the sun for some baseball.

Another loss for the team - they haven't won a game - but hey, it's summer, it's Saturday, and it's just baseball.

It's That Time Again

The Craftsbury Outdoor Center Tuesday Night Trail Race Series has begun. Actually, they're already on race # 3 this evening and Cole has been in all of them so far.

If anyone wants to follow Cole's progress through this race series, you can check his times by clicking here. It usually take a day or so for them to post the times, but they have the first 2 race results already posted.

Baseball

Wayne had some great hits in his game Saturday. They played a Lyndonville team at Lyndon State College and lost, but Wayne played well. I think he looks like a giant in these shots!

Wayne

Lake Region had Awards Night. Wayne received an award for having an high grade point average while also playing sports. (I think he should have received a special award for having a high grade point average while carrying all honors classes, while taking 11th grade honors algebra as a freshman, while taking a foreign language AND a fine art{band}, while also taking jazz band which filled up his only possible study hall, while also playing every seasonal sport all year.)

 A couple of snapshots of Wayne playing baseball. 

 Here he's at bat.

 And here he's pitching (warming up to pitch)

Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day weekend started off on Saturday with the traditional planting of flowers at the cemeteries.

 Heather had been at an overnight birthday party but she wanted me to come get her in the morning so she could help with the planting.  She was tired. They didn't get much sleep!

 Cole had run a 5K in Hardwick just before coming to the cemetery.

 Then, Monday morning, as usual, Wayne and Cole are in the parades. Here is the middle school marching band.

 And this is Wayne's first year in the high school marching band.

 Wayne and Cole both participated  in the Orleans parade and ceremony. Then Cole went on to Albany, as usual, but Wayne went to Glover with the high school. In Glover, he played Taps, but I didn't get to see because I went with Cole and Wes went with Wayne.

 The Albany parade.  You've got to hand it to these small towns. They continue to try to honor their soldiers.
