Sat. May 20
From a warmer MO,
This has been a full day. We left here a little after 7:00 to have a good breakfast at Country Kitchen. When we returned, Jim puttered on the computer to send some good photos to Mike Jones in Iraq of CHS pole vaulters this year - and I basically mildewed.
Butch and Judi Shaffer picked us up about 9:30 and we headed to Kearney and the sectional track meet. The top four qualifiers in each event would qualify for the state meet at Jefferson City this coming weekend. The boys took three boys down - and all three qualified in at least one event. The girls took more down, but Sarah Stafford was the only qualifier - am thinking it was the shot put. One thing we saw that was outstanding was a male vaulter from Lee's Summit West HS clear a height of 15 feet and 6 inches - this is really outstanding for a high school male.
When the meet was over (Butch took photos of the CHS kids) we headed to Liberty to eat at 54th Street. We do so enjoy their salads there. On the way home, Judi drove as Butch spent the time going over the photos he had taken.
At this point, Sunday will be a day of recuperation. I do want to put my six tomato plants into the ground and this will necessitate breaking up the ground a little more, pounding in some metal stakes, planting the tomatoes, and the attaching the large tomato cages. It really won't take that long, but am guessing an hour will be sufficient. Beyond that I hope to finish the Diane Mott Davidson book (have been saying that for several days) and sew in the ends of a baby afghan that I finished during the drive to Kearney this morning.
Be safe.
