March 1, 2009

Wow what a week. We got home from Ft. Collins, Monday afternoon. We were settling in for the night and at 10:30 got a call that the high school was on fire. Goodbye Pete until 2:30 in the morning. The fire was contained in the auditorium roof, but smoke damage and smell bothered the students and teachers all week. No "fire day." This was Pete's chance, but ..... no, school as usual. Then on Tues. the boys basketball team played their first playoff game at home and WON! Their next game was to be Sat. in Golden.

Then on to the rest of the hectic week, Pete had school board on Thurs. so Deb packed up and went to Winter Park to see her sister, brother in law, Jacqueline, Tiffany, Mike, Julie and Maggie. Too much food and too much drink. We went on a sleigh ride and steak dinner and had a lot of fun. Then Chris and Ang, joined us with their dogs and all got along great. Chris and Ang built an igloo the next morning with Jacque and Maggs, and then, too soon, we all had to head home. Deb will miss her Florida crew and Arizona crew immensly.

We went out to dinner with the Rughs on Sat. night and then over to Whinery's Sun. to view the movie "Taking Chance." I had Chance Phelps as a third grade student. Sadly, he lost his life in Iraq. A documentary was made to honor Chance and all veterans. If you have a chance to see it, do. It is very well done.

Well, it's on to another busy week. No traveling this week,....Our Ft. Collins kids are coming Friday so....something to look forward to. Love to all.

P.S. I'm sorry to say, the boys bb team lost in Golden but gave a great effort. Maybe next year but they had a great season.
