One great thing about going to Rogue River was that we got to visit our friends Dan and Sandi. Dan teaches at Rogue River High School. Dan and I graduated from Western Baptist College together, Jeannette and Sandi were freshmen together there, Jeannette was in their wedding and Sandi was in ours. But our latest connection is that they traveled to China this summer to bring Jenna home.
It was great to get the girls together. Jenna seems to be doing wonderfully . . . she's almost as big as Melody already even though she's much younger.

We only had about an hour with them before we had to get over to the meet. And, of course, if there's a camera and a Melody, there will be pictures taken . . .

MJ insisted on giving Jordan some encouragement at the starting line . . .

And the following picture is one of my favorites from the whole season. Corey, John and Jordan were waiting for the race instructions, just relaxing and having a good time.

Corey finished first for Hosanna in 19:06, which was his PR by a couple seconds. John was about a half minute behind Jordan, which was pretty good considering that he had been sick with the flu all week.
From there, it was to Sonic for lunch, then on to the mall in Medford to find basketball shoes for Jordan. He doesn't say that he's glad the season is over, but he is glad to have a break. Basketball practice starts a week from Monday. It's always somethin'.
