I used to daydream that maybe one day Hallie might be coached by Kay Yow. News comes this morning that the legendary N.C. State women’s basketball basketball coach passed away after another bout with cancer. She was 66.
The thing I’ll remember about Coach Yow is how she could always be seen in the stands of an N.C. State athletic event. N.C. State wasn’t just a 9 to 5 job for Coach Yow, it was a passion.
I took the coworkers up on a lunchtime game of basketball and got whipped. Good exercise is the kind that wears you out, and that’s what I got yesterday. It was fun, but quite a bit of effort to keep up.
I look forward to many more games, though. If I do that regularly I’ll soon be in excellent shape in no time!
Check out this comment I got from MT.Net visitor Sean Fitzpatrick of Fitzy Snowman:

After the inaguration I was inspired to create a 2.5 ton snow sculpture tribute to our 44th president titles Snowbama. Here is a link to the time lapse video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h40ChZAYDh0
I hope you like it!
