Monday, Jan. 16 - MLK Day. The snow has completely taken over Grays Harbor. The roads are fine, but the rest of the world is covered in white.
Went outside for a little while, got a nice walk in and threw snowballs at the little girl. She returned them just as well. This was a nice day to have off – no worries. Practice was optional due to the holiday. Now, if the snow closes school, then it’ll get interesting this week. Meet on Wednesday vs. North Thurston at home. There are 4-5 newbies who are threatening district qualifying marks and this is a good meet to try and get it at. The Rams are stocked full of good swimmers. Snow is good, but too much snow is bad.
I’ll refrain from a picture on this day, but not the previous one.
Sunday, Jan. 15 - More football. This was the first full day of snow on the ground. The end of football is growing near. Just one more full Sunday and one mega-Sunday left to go before the football winter sets in until August. Baseball will be interesting, however. Always has been. Always will be.

Saturday, Jan. 14 - Another full night in the office. I realized that we need a full house in the office to get everything in, that’s at least 3 people, especially if one of them (myself) is on desk duty (aka in the barrel).
By the way, my DVR stopped taping the Niners-Saints thriller in San Francisco with 5 minutes left in the game. Thus, I missed the dramatic ending. Thanks to the Internet, I heard the 49ers Network call of the game, including Ted Robinson losing his shit when Vernon Davis caught the game-winning pass from Alex Smith with 9 seconds left in the game.
Here’s the call (in Techmo Super Bowl):
Friday, Jan. 13 - In the barrel. Light day, nothing to it.
