Whitetail, speedway, golf, and more

Kids talked Sara into an extended weekend. RJ and Julia did some running to earn screen time. Doug took a day off so we could fit in the Clear Spring Carnival, golf, tubing, and the Hagerstown Speedway. And there was plenty of fun in the pool and woods.

The pic above shows the meet-and-greet. We met some folks with boys who were big fans of #22. So we cheered for him ... and he won! We left around 11pm ... but there was 1 more race we could have watched. Sara had to wash the mud off her face before going to bed.

Fun at the pool. It was good being at a pool with no lifeguard after the Overlee experience (cannot have anybody on your shoulders, cannot walk along the closed pool, cannot sit on a basketball in the pool, cannot play with a ball that kids had been harmlessly playing with for 30 minutes, etc. etc.)

Preparing for tubing on Conococheague Creek

Tubing was chilly but fun ... we hiked up creek a bit and floated to the Covered Bridge at Martins Mill Bridge Park. 

Golf at Yingling's Par 3 course - Julia gets shot-of-the-day by holing out from here for a par!
