Whitney was running during X-country practice with a group of 10 girls. As they were crossing the street a lady came around the stopped traffic and hit Whitney sending her in the air. The lady rolled down her window and asked,"Are you okay?" Whitney in shock and surprised that she was still alive after being hit by a car answers yes. The lady then drove off! This freaked all the girls. Some good samaritan called the ambulance and police. They wrote it up as a hit and run. Whitney had a bruised seater-ender and deep scrapes on her hands and forearms. We are grateful she has no lasting problems from it. We have to laugh and tease her about it because I think we would cry knowing what could have been the outcome. She was pretty scared to cross the street the first day back. It was the big gossip for a few days and Spencer even had a kid come up to him and say "Did you hear some dumb sophomore got hit by a car during cross country practice?" Spencer's reply was "Yeah, that was my sister, but thanks for telling me." I think the guy felt pretty stupid after that.

Labor Day Trip To Grand Targhee
Yes we procrastinated the very last day to pick up our family ski pass at the preseason discount price. With everyone's schedules busy with cross country, football, powder puff football, homecoming skit practice, you name it we couldn't find a moment to take a rode trip up to get our pictures taken. We were mad at Targhee for making us drive 80 miles just to purchase our pass at the discount price. They wouldn't let us purchase them on line or over the phone so we loaded up the family truckster and had a fun day. We have been snowboarding for five years now and still love it. Unfortunately our children are surpassing us with their skill and youthful vigor! After getting our passes we rode the chairlift to the top. They handed out hot blankets that we snuggled up in. How come they don't hand those out in January when it's freezing cold at the top! It was exciting because it snowed on us as we got to the top. On our way back we hit the Spud drive in and took some pictures in front of the famous spud.
