a quick trip between hail storms . . .

Josh made it back to the house just in time to leave again . . . . but, I actually had to force him to leave.  He had already planned a trip to Moab, Utah to run in the AMASA 10 mile trail run.  He had been planning to do it with a friend . . . then the friend had to back out . . . long story, but Josh had really been looking forward to it, and I knew he would have regretted not doing it, even though he was tired and homesick. So, off he went . . .  and yes, after seeing these pictures, we were very sad we didn't go with him---next year though.  :)

We are very proud of you Josh & all your athletic accomplishments!!  You are definitely a role model for me & our kiddoes.  And then, we had him back for um . . . four days . . . and then back to McAllen he goes, yes another hail storm.  So . . . Josh will be in the Valley for the 'unforseeable future' again.  :(
