Polar Plunge

I participated in the Polar Plunge for Special Olympics Oregon in Feb. Brrrrrr! it was not as bad as it could have been, because it was a sunny, and non-windy day.

Some fast facts:

water temp - 42 degress F

# of other idiots like me - 300+

Dollar raised for Special Olympics Oregon - $37,000.00

I do not have any photos to share just yet, but you can follow the links, to the Special Olympics Oregon Polar Plunge website.and directions below, and you will see the three photos with me in them. I am wearing an orange Oregon State t-shirt.

It may a few clicks to get there, and you know how it goes, if you get one click wrong, no telling where you will end up.

"basketball, shoot"

"Basketball, shoot" is how Daniel describes his Special Olympics Skills games, and his pronunciation of "shoot" sounds more like "cute." Either way, he loves participating.

Daniel is in the spotlight here, but I will give an update on the others in a separate blog post.

Thanks and take care all,

Pat Hazleton
