AP Biology

Jack's AP Bio class went bowling and then to dinner.

 

Track Practices

I have had fun coaching the distance girls in track this spring. Today they did some core work after their run.

 

Track Meet #3: Lincoln

The SVdP girls won this meet! SVdP has never won a meet outside of conference before. There were 13 teams there. Anna and Elizabeth were part of the 4x400 team that placed first. Anna won the 1600m (5:30.79) and Elizabeth was second (5:44.50). Kate ran the 400m for the first time in a while and placed first with a new PR (1:04.87). Anna won the 800m (2:29.85), Kate was second (2:35.69) and Elizabeth was third (2:37.48). Elizabeth was second in the triple jump with a new PR 29'11.5". Anna was 5th in the high jump with a jump of 4-4. Kate did not do a lot of sprints in this meet because she is still recovering from her strained calf. I don't have any pictures because I was busy helping coaching on the field. 

 

The Long Way Home...

No one likes the trip home...the flight was only 6ish hours this time, but it was a red-eye with the time change. We made it back to Tulsa around 5:30 am.

 

Mt. Haleakala

Since we had to check out of the hotel by 10 am, we decided to drive up to Haleakala. The drive was rural and beautiful. The road up the mountain was very windy and steep. We drove through the clouds and ended up on top of them at the top.

 

The Night Sky

The stars were so bright! We saw Venus and Uranus. Jack also found Sirius while we were walking back from dinner.

The top star above the moon is Venus

 The bright star above the three in a row is Sirius

Sunset

We walked to get dinner and stopped on the beach to look at the sunset.
