Amazing St. Paddy's Day feast by the Irish beauty, Mrs. Boyd. And a birthday apple pie from my sweet mother-in-law. I am blessed.
What a season! The Moscow Mechanics placed 5th out of 20 at the Idaho FTC Championship in Meridian this past weekend. And we had the high score of the first 6 rounds with our good friends A2Z Robotics. And we were the first pick for the elimination rounds and so competed in the semifinals. I am super proud of this young, hard-working, fun, and competitive bunch! #ftc18552 #moscowmechanics #FIRSTIdaho #firstinspires #Robotics #STEM #homeschoolscience
