Run, run, run

Yesterday was the 2nd annual Bowler Elementary "Reindeer Run."  And for the second year in the row, Luke took first place in his grade!  He is one speedy guy, handily beating the next closest competitor.  This year, being the fastest boy in the 5th grade made him presumably the fastest kid in the school. Congrats to Luke. (Unfortunately, he did not get a t-shirt.  They ran out of shirts for the winners before they got to him.  The top five male and female runners from each grade got t-shirts.  The only group that did NOT get shirts were the 5th grade boys, ironically the fastest runners in the school.  He wore his last year's "Reindeer Run" shirt to school today in honor of his victory.)

*I'm realizing that I have not posted in almost a month-gasp, and also that my last few posts are quite long, philosophical, and picture-less.  I will try to do less philosophizing and more photographing for near-future posts-but don't hold your breath; this is a busy time of year.
