Congrats to NBC sports teams + Ireland!

In the last several nights we have had some really great things happen. Both basketball teams defeated good Tussey Mountain teams (the girls won on Thursday and the boys won Friday night). The girls are the top seed in the district right now and the boys knocked off a Tussey team that only had one loss before the game Friday night. We also have a couple of guys in Saturday's semifinals at the Thomas Tournament in Bedford. T. Chesney and B. Sollenberger will wrestle in the morning. A win means a chance at a gold medal in one of the best tournaments in the state. Good luck guys!

For your viewing pleasure this weekend, we have a travel type of video that is super neat. It feels like you are flying over the country. I think you will be able to tell why they call it the Emerald Isle. Look at all that green! The second video of the weekend shows some great Irish dancing. In this type of dancing the focus is on rapid leg movements while the body and arms remain nearly motionless. The dancers in this video are IMPRESSIVE!

Have a wonderful weekend...

Collin, I just tried it again and it played. Just click on the play button right in the middle of the video and it should start playing. The Mona Lisa video I posted just now is really cool too. I'm glad you checked out the blog and showed your mom too!

I love to dance. Actually I just got back from dance a little bit ago! I couldn't learn all those steps. They have to be professionals to dance like that so fast! COOL!! Hi Mr. Black!!
