Rain, Rain, Go Away

We’ve had incredible amounts of rain in June, so much so that we have easily surpassed our average monthly rainfall and we still have over a week left in the month.  It rained on today’s swim meet but they carried on until it started to thunder.  At that point it was mathematically impossible for the other team to beat us, so they just called it off.  I think it’s officially in the books and we don’t have to have a reswim, but who knows? 

Ben shaved time off his freestyle and backstroke, and swam a legal breastroke for the first time!  I’m sure he’ll improve as the season progresses since he hasn’t really been able to make it to practice.  Kate took time off her freestyle but inexplicably added time to both her backstroke and breastroke.  She claims her foot slipped off the wall at the backstroke start but I’m not sure why she struggled with the breaststroke today.  Maybe just being cold since it was chilly in the rain.

On the photography front, I really miss my 20D.  These are shot with my old Rebel, and are soft, soft, soft.
