Shaun’s First Steeplechase – QuickTime Movie

We took our family Spring Ski trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming.   It’s tough to get there, but once you do, the town and slopes were amazing.  Shaun brought a friend of his, Derek along to celebrate the end of the Senior Year in High School.  Shaun will be going to University of Chicago next Fall, and needs to get used to the frigid winters, albeit, it was not that frigid in Spring in Jackson Hole.  The Spring Skiing was temperate and almost a bit too warm, as we hit JH late in the season.
Shaun finished off his senior track season and had a great year with a lot of Personal Bests and finished as Track Team MVP.  He just missed qualifying for States, as he was pipped at the finish in the 3200m at Regionals.  He also tried his first steeplechase (video) which was very entertaining.   It may be something he can continue doing in college.   As a joke, we have included an old picture Sareet received from of a friend of his when Sareet snuck onto the Olympic Track in Munich to try the long jump pit.  As you can see, Shaun did not get his track prowess from his Papi. A few of Sareet’s college friends also came to town (Don, Geoff and Mike) and played some golf at the local clubs.  As they live up north, it was quite a treat.

We expect more of you to visit us in the coming months and years.
