Track & Field

I made it out to my first track meet yesterday afternoon. Boy was it cold up in Tonasket. Did I mention it snowed this morning and we are going to be under a winter storm watch starting tomorrow night? Goodness... okay back to subject.

Going to the track meet was great. I had a blast watching the kids and they seemed like they enjoyed my "coaching." Of course I feel like I'm getting the hang of looking for the technical aspects of throwing and I may actually be helping them now. There is another track meet on Tuesday at Cascade, but may be a bit far for me to venture.

I did get about 100 pictures in before my camera battery started telling me it was too cold to be taking photos. My hands agreed. It was interesting to me, that although I don't think most of the photos turned out very good, they show the kids' techniques pretty well. They kind of helped me to see what they are doing right or wrong.

I have more baseball pictures from the last game, but since I've already entertained you with many, I just decided to post my favorite. There are some more new ones in my portfolio.

It's amazing to me how the "mistakes" can turn into such great shots when viewed on the computer. The focus on the ball is phenomenal. I do wish I could have gotten the players at 2nd base, but it still seems to balance out.
