In the Fast Lane

On April 25th, Jonathan participated in a pinewood derby race with his cub scout den. He had a blast this year working on his car. Last year we bought a pre-cut car and did minimal work to it. This year he took the block of wood given to him at cub scouts and created his own car. He had use of some handy tools when we visited some friends in Washington (Thanks Keith!).

Jonathan was thrilled to win 2nd place in his den. He is set to race in the District race this coming weekend.

The race was even more special because Daddo was able to watch him. Daddo raced in a Pinewood Derby years ago. It was neat for them to share the experience.

Here's a picture of Daddo's car.
