Nice timing of the shot there Gene. I agree with Pat that #2 has the edge.

As I tell my granddaughter, the main focus is to finish.
Winning is nice, but finishing is the goal.

How very true! The most impressive thing about these high school cross country races is the number of kids who go out there knowing there is no way they are coming close to winning but every week they complete the 3 mile run. Some of them so far behind that you wonder why they're there, but they are the real inspiration to some of their better teammates. watching the faster runners stick around the finish area to cheer on the final few is a great encouragement that some good is still in these youngsters

Hi twillsol, No he ended up 6th overall, his four teammates there and the kid in the red finished ahead.

Thanks Amy, the tour is quite remarkable. I was lucky enough to go twice with 3rd graders. The reactions are alittle different at that age

Pic didn't come all that great (forgot to adjust settings after parent/srs photo session), but can anyone guess which team might win the meet? My son is on the outside left of pic.

At least he ended up in a warm place. Looks like you had an interesting day.
Yeah, I guess he'll be ok. A local bio prof said its a breed of pet duck so somebody nearby is without a friend.
As for interesting, at one point he actually flew right at me. I was tempted to try and catch him but feared I might hurt him (or me)
Thanks for looking

Had a surprise visitor along with the large snowfall today. A neighbor spotted him sitting on the snow by his house, but some attempts to capture by the city animal control officer had him land in front of our house. He later landed in the back of my pick up where I was able to coral him for the AnimalControl guy who took him to the local SPCA

3: Go take the shot over. You didn't get an image with a clear view of at least one ducks eye with catch light. Do it over. Until then, crop out two ducks. Choose the best of the two that have heads.
Yeah just go ask the ducks to line up again. how hard can that be?
