COMPLETELY not fishing related. Too awesome to not post though.

Today marked my end of 15 years of pinewood derby. Proud to say now we had 4 cars that were winners in all this time.

Winner winner chicken dinner

Jeremy put all the work into the car, this year I merely coached him and assisted when necessary. He cut it, sanded it, he did it all. 

Woohoo we're going to the districts for the second time!!

Very proud of him! 

God Him Scott and you too!
warmest regards from Awesome John

TU Awesome John! Hope all is well in Turkey!

A job well done. 15 years. WOW. Your a great dad. Scouting is a committment for parents and child. We did it from start to Eagle scout. Now he's alone finishing up his senior year in Florida. He always said 3 years ago, don't worry about me in school, I'm an Eagle Scout. I know what to do. I still have his 4 Pinewood cars. First one was a placing car. Ugly as heck but ran smooooooth. The others he wanted fancy but they never performed like the brick version.

Congrats to Jeremy (for doing a great job) & you (for being a good Dad).  I too, am an Eagle scout.  Be proud to do what you want & do it well!  Nice accomplishment!!

wow that's cool lol I remember building one when I was a kid....congrats

TU guys! Jeremy is all pumped up now LOL

That's awesome!! Congratulations. Who doesn't have a good memory about Pinewood Derby!?
