Knowledge Bowl 2009

Hootis had her "Knowledge Bowl" competition this weekend. Her school had 3 teams this year. All three teams placed in the top 10 of all the participating schools in the district. The topic this year was "The Arts" with questions about Music, Literature and Art.

The blond girl sitting next to Hootis is the daughter of a good friend of mine who was in Ecuador with me. She lives in our same town and the girls have become friends. How weird is that? Who could have imagined back in the Ecuador days of 1993 that some day, 16 years in the future, we'd both have daughters that go to the same school and are friends? Certainly not me.
