Chris and I are less than two days away from our trip to Idaho to participate in the Final Leg Torch Run for the 2009 Special Olympics World Winter games. There was a great article in the parade magazine yesterday in the paper. It spotlighted the World Games and talked about the diversity of this years games. There will be over 2,400 athelets from 107 games represented in Idaho, with over 6,000 volunteers. This Winter Games will be the largest winter sporting event ever held, even larger than the Olympics in Salt Lake City in 2002. I will attach the link at the bottom of this blog in case you are interested in reading it. The weather in Coeur d'Alene is nicer than what we have in Oklahoma City today, it is 21 degrees with a windchill of 12 with sunny skies. They are expecting light snow showers off and on for the next two days. I will try and post a blog sometime wednesday after we arrive in Coeur d'Alene.
