A Saturday Throwback Thursday Stolen From the Intertubes: With the Circle of Life Thrown In

As my daughters said when they were younger, "This was before they invented color..."  And the second one is from when "Color was experimental..."

And my Daughter the Elder just received her summer schedule for her upcoming Freshman XC season at Penn State Mont Alto from Matt and Bob's former high school coach Bill Preston.

Alumni Singlet Makes Appearance at "Reach the Beach"

The team of mostly PSU Track Alumni (Golfers) that came in second at the New Hampshire Reach the Beach 200 Mile Relay were really a remarkable group.  The only team ahead of them were many years their junior. 

Soon-to-be Official Group Physicist Ron Moore graciously sent us some pics but was nursing a hamstring injury and acted as a driver of one of the two vans needed for the expedition.  Reading up on this event, I'm stunned at the logistics and attention to detail that's required.  It's a testament to the education provided by PSU that all of this was handled with such professionalism..The rest of the rabble of our group tip our hats to each and every one of you involved in this event.

Here's Mark Wimmer finishing his final leg with the Alumni Singlet leading the way.
