Nick adds to his Resume

Yes, my friends, Nick has now added "line judge" to his long and distinguished list of jobs, some of which include "fish guy" at Safeway, "personal trainer," "produce clerk," "fiberglass repairman," "automotive parts pro," and "lube and oil technician" (whatever that means). Volleyball season has started at the school, and thus, Nick's emerging career as a line judge is just getting started. Two teams flew in last week and they played volleyball until nearly 11:00 p.m.!! Stebbins played really well--and it was a blast to see all the people out to watch them play. (Although they may have just been out to see how long Nick's beard has grown).

Below is a rare shot of the line judge in action. Notice the confident way that his arms are thrown up, and the authority in which he makes the call. Sure, it is a time out--but practice makes perfect.

The 2008 summer olympics are just around the corner and rumor has it that they are looking for v-ball line judges. I just took a video trip thru town courtesy of Damon/Heidi's blog. SO cool to see where you are! Gee, it'd be swell if you guys started posting videos. Hint hint. :) Thinking of you both as I have a few students I'd like to ship off to you. Think I'd get in trouble for sending kids to Alaska? ~Betsy
