Pinewood Derby

Whew! It's all over. Okay...so it wasn't THAT bad. :) I just wanted to post a couple of pictures of the boys cars and explain them.



Nater wanted to make a wii remote for his "car" and this was the design we came up with. And yes...there is actually a 3-D "B" button on the bottom. Sorry it doesn't show here.



The boys love the Percy Jackson and the Olympians book series in which Percy Jackson finds out that he is a demi-God: Poseidon's child. Out of his love for these books, Caleb chose the trident as the main design for his car. Percy's sword in the book is called Riptide---hence the name on the side of his car.



Caleb placed 3rd overall for the Webelos age group and Nate won 1 of his heats. This last picture is of his car winning. If you look close you will see the nose of the other car on the left of the picture.
