Saturday, September 26, 2009

Well, I'm making lotsa memories to last until we can see our Max again. Here we are at Kents Hill's first cross-country competition of the season. Brian is the cross-country track coach, and has brought this team back from near extinction to being a real contender. They did well in this meet, and I loved seeing the players call Brian '"Coach Beard," and observing the respect and interaction between him and the team. Brian loved running cross-country in high school, and now he is teaching it to the next generation. As you can see, we are all bundled up. Although the day was crystal clear, blue-blue skies and sun-shimmers in the trees, the temperature was upper 50s. We all returned to the school and dined in the dining hall - lasagna, vegetables, and a great salad bar.

Max came home with us for a sleep-over, and had a great time playing Mexican Train with Tom and me. Do you know that little stinker won all three games!
