[ lucky duck ]

Yesterday, while Mom, Melissa, and I were at a crafting getaway in Wenatchee, Mom got a phone call from Dad.

He bought four tickets for the annual Mid-Columbia Duck Race at the Benton-Franklin County Fair in August. Last week, he bought an additional ticket from a co-worker.

At the race on the Columbia River on Saturday, one of Dad's ducks was the first one across the finish line and he won this:

Ow Ow!

It's crazy! I heard on the radio all week the advertising campaign to buy a duck. I thought, who actually wins these things. I've never known anyone that won something from the Duck Race.

Blah Blah Blah.

Funny how life works.

We've all been getting calls & texts since yesterday congratulating Dad. Pretty cool.
