World Championship Cardboard Boat Races

We thought this was yet another strange Arkansas thing that we were being introduced to, but apparantly cardboard boat racing is a popular event around the country. Kimberly-Clark had two entries. Daddy got to be in the preliminary heat! He's pedaling on the yellow boat.
The boat arriving on shore.

Daddy wasn't expecting to have this great privilege, so he wasn't prepared or dressed for the event!!
My favorite part was the balloons the radio DJ kept giving me.

The beach was pretty cool too, but it was all goopy mud at the shoreline.
The Discovery Channel was filming the event. Daddy's boat came in second place, so they were interviewed. Daddy might be on TV. We'll keep y'all posted.
