Click on a thumbnail sketch to see the full size picture.

Posing with Rex Meg and I drove Frogasaurus Rex in the Philomath Frolic parade. We kinda faked the art since we left out the head frame and just relied on the skin. Also we left off the eyes. But in most cases, people recognized it for a frog.
What pretty girl can resist kissing the frog? kissing the frog
If I hadn't been in the parade with Rex, I would have joined the group below.
FIRST teams I have special interest in this group. This is the FIRST Robotics Teams float. I am a mentor for the Corvallis High School FIRST team. Unfortunately, CHS was the only school that didn't show up at Philomath.

Ready The totes are stacked. The robots are in the starting position.
The first thing they do is to try to know as many totes as possible into their own scoring position. Knock them down
Practice lift If there is time left, you can try to stack a few. If you are successful, you can multiply your score.
