Drakes Creek Wraps Up Volleyball Season, Ravens Roll

Our fall became a bit less hectic this past week.  Annee and Heather wrapped up their volleyball season on Wednesday.  The 7th grade Gators finished 2nd in the district tournament to South Warren.  Drakes Creek led 23-17 in the first set of the championship match before it slipped away.  South Warren won the 2nd set 25-16.  The 8th grade lost in the semi-finals to Bowling Green on Tuesday 21-25, 24-26.  It was a pretty well played game.  The 7th grade team finished the season 12-3 while the 8th grade team finished 12-8.  Annee has a month of just swimming before basketball starts up.

Hayden and the Ravens rolled to an easy victory (38-6) on Wednesday against the Jets.  They are now 5-1 and have a week off for fall break.  Hayden is playing 4 quarters at center and 2 quarters on defense.  The next game will be Monday the 14th.  Last Saturday, Hayden finished 91st out of 187 running at the Gatorland XC meet.  It was the first meet where he had to run a 3K.  He is doing a pretty good job for not getting to many practices.

The Executive Committee for the Republican Party of Kentucky had a retreat and meeting at the Lake Cumberland.  I spent my first night on a houseboat.  Below is a view from our cruise around the lake.
