My Baby Gets A Medal

Daughter No. 1 has been rowing a boat. She's on the crew team at Ohio State, and they compete just about every weekend. This past weekend, they traveled to Indianapolis and competed against several teams, mainly Purdue. I like to claim Purdue as my alma mater, but I only attended a branch, and I only attended for a year and a half. I guess that doesn't count then.

Here is the progression of events:

To the dock.

On the dock.

Winning. As Daughter says, "on the left, obviously, is our boat and on the right is purdue. note the large gap in between, about three boatlengths of open water! celebration ensues."

Yea! for Daughter No. 1
