Bay State Games...at Harvard University

     The Bay State games!!!  Such an honor to actually make it and the girls made a lot of events.  Laura ended up with a silver medal and Emily had a bronze.  They were exhausted with all that swimming.  they had a meet on Friday night and woke up early on Saturday, swam all day till the early evening and did it all over again on Sunday.  Such good kids and they love swimming.  Laura and Mr Ring have this special relationship where he absolutely loves her work ethic and competitive drive.  He's a former champion speed racer on the ice and he loves to talk training with her.  He had told her some of his secrets of training through the years and one of them was to drink honey before competitive racing.  Now Laura has a shot of honey before every race.  All the kids on her team get a big kick out of that...and the one thing about Laura that I absolutely love is she don't give a shit!!!  The fact that Mr Ring said it is good enough for her.  Funny funny funny gal she is.
