6.5 on the treadmill and 1 on the stair master. Kept it about 8.4 mph and fellt pretty strong.

Pinewood Derby tonight at the Methodist Church! We rock.

Andy's car won an award for "Best Design". That's an award they give the slow cars :).  His front wheels were crooked and we forgot to put graphite on them.

Andy didn't get to see any of the races though because he got smacked in the eye with a ski pole up at Snowbird today and he's spent the evening with Ann at the Urgent treatment place.

Aww poor guy. Is he doing alright? Did he get hit by another kid or an adult?

Scratched cornea. His second in the last six months and in the same eye. He'll be lucky to get out of elementary school with that eye. And, get this, the same idiot kid did it both times.

I'll have to think about suing the kids parents.

Dang. That sucks.

That kid's parents need to get him a pair of these:

Dang, I missed the derby this year. That's what I get for being so busy.
