This past 2 weeks have been a downer, but I have the feeling that things are going to be looking up soon. Or at least they better. First of all Jared's team has lost 2 in a row, brought down by Pirates from the north (Phoenix), and Pirates from the west (Marshfield). Jared had well played games though, even if his team couldn't quite pull it together. Don't worry boys, things will be looking up this week, that long drive to Eugene will give everyone some time to think. Monte on the other hand had a fabulous game against Scenic last Tuesday, with so many tackles that the coach had to pull him off of defence in the 4th quarter due to the 44 to 8 lead that we had over them. Both of the boys are playing so well, on both the offensive and defensive lines, getting lots of playing time. Monte takes to the field again against Eagle Point today, hopefully they will do well. Good Luck! In other news, we had a huge wild fire here racing up the hill towards my Grandpa's, and Aunt's houses. They fire came within feet of them, but they fire fighters were able to keep a good fire line around them. Grandpa had a terrific view from my parent's front yard, it was as good a view as you could get, and the helicopters and the fire crews were right next to us out in our field. There was also a fire that broke out in Medford shortly after the one in Ashland, and we got a ton of ash dropped on us at work, as well as a great view of that on also. Both the fires have calmed now, but it was to close for comfort for our family. Now we have smoke, and everything in Ashland smells like camp fire, and probably will for a couple more days.
