Last Day of Summer Vacation




Today is the last day of summer vacation, so we decided to go go-karting.  For just under $1 you get a ticket, wait in line and then drive 3 laps around the course.  The karts have no seatbelts, but are so low they are about impossible to roll over.  Mia tested the rebound characteristics of the tire barriers and was unscathed.  I subscribe to the 'put the accelerator on the floor the entire time' strategy.  I lost my hat on the last lap, shortly after Ben took this picture.



At church tonight, the electricity went out.  We moved the pews outside, to take advantage of what little daylight was left.  Fortunately, the electricity came back on about half way through the service.  I thought, 'Christ Community Church in Omaha never has adventures like this!'
