The Thrill of Victory

The Makeshift Gatorade Bath

Yesterday we watched them win the Oregon high school age boys rugby Division Two State Championship! Woo Hoo! What a great game and a fantastic last 5 seconds of the game! Way to score and come from behind to take the trophy! And a big congrats to our friend Eric, who coaches the team. He’s an outstanding guy who loves coaching, is great with the kids, and what more, it’s obvious that his players love him.

Next stop… The regional final against the Washington Division Two Champions! We will be there to help cheer you on and watch you kick their collective rugby butts!

I saw this article the other day and had to share. It made me laugh, and there are moments when that’s all a person needs out of life…

Naked man in high heels shuts down McMinnville building

McMINNVILLE, Ore. (AP) — A man wearing nothing but women’s high heels was the cause of a building lockdown by police in downtown McMinnville.

The unidentified man was spotted sitting on a bench on the basement floor of a nearly vacant medical building Wednesday afternoon.

After a call to 911 dispatchers, two McMinnville police units responded and were assisted by deputies from the Yamhill County Sheriffs Office and the Oregon State Police. The building was locked down and surrounded, but alas, no naked man.

The man was described as 40 to 50 years old, bald or with short white hair, of thin to medium build.

He was last seen running down one of the building’s hallways in the heels, police said.
