Lauren is Heading to NJDC Games


Hello All, Lauren and I are planning our trip to New Jersey. Lauren with about 12 of her friends are ready to compete in either the National or the Internation Junior Disabled sport events. Five of the kids will compete in the International games that are being held in NJ and the rest of the group will be competing in the National events.

Lauren is competing on the National level in swimming, field events and possibly archery. It will be a very busy week for all of us. I will post pictures when I have some. Last year the National games were in Spokane, WA. Here is a picture of Lauren and Alex para-sailing last year on a day off from the events. We drove in Idaho. It was beautiful. During another day from the games, Lauren went white water rafting with Kelly, Scott, George, Ariel, Alex, Jan, Eugene, and Jonathan. That was before she competed in her swimming events.

These are not the best quality but it is another of the flooding videos. We stood around watching after it was clear that we could not do anything more. I can't imagine how something so pretty can be so distructive. Out of time for today. Check for more later.

Video # 2

Some picts while all was under water.

Hello family and friends, I have been really busy and have failed to load a bunch of pictures, but you can be sure that someone is taking pictures. Here are a few I have about 6 short video's that Nicholas took that are truly amazing to watch. They show the levee getting topped. There are video clips taken minutes of each other and they show the power of the water. I don't know how many I can post here - so I might take a couple of days to add them all.
