~:[CH10 - Day 325]:~ The Dust Bowl
We headed to the course and realized that they were ahead of schedule. One of our girls had to rush to warmup and then ventured to the line. As I went out onto the course, it was a dustbowl . The wind was blowing and every so often, I had to turn or cover my eyes. By the time I left, my nostrils were full of dust and I could feel it for the rest of the day. Regardless, the athletes survived and came out happy that they enjoyed this mini weekend. I think one of the things about this group that made it special was that they were energized about doing this. They had a good spirit, they got along well together and simply just made the whole experience pleasurable except for when their fatigue hysteria kicked in and their laughter and yelling filled the air. This group is the youngest group I have taken to junior olympics with only freshmen and sophomores, which means that there could be a bright future ahead of a team ready to carry on the ohana spirit. It was a great day that we were just able to go bananas.
