Elliot worked so hard on his rocket. Sanding, gluing fins, sanding, painting, sanding, painting some more.... his work paid off with a purple ribbon, excellent. Special thanks to Dad for guiding Elliot throughout his first rocket building experience.

Fair fun





With the mild temperatures there were LOTS of people to participate in the animal scrambles. Elliot wanted to catch a goat, but got a chicken instead. Hunter ran in the mass of over 100 girls to catch a bunny, but they all got away. Elliot's chicken earned him $2 from a farmer. He was ready to sell the minute he caught it. Elliot's wearing bright green t-shirt and black "OS" hat. Hunter's wearing brown t-shirt and white/blue plaid shorts. This is like "Where's Waldo"!
