(And a trout update)
I sense that many of you have been huddled around your computer in the last few days anxiously awaiting the news that Chester, our rambunctious Goldendoodle, has made his annual Super Bowl pick. Well, your wait it over.
As you can see below, Chester took this task very seriously. The photo below shows him just minutes before making his selection, contemplating the odds of each team winning, analyzing team data and statistics and most importantly, contemplating whether the Taylor Swift factor was going to come into play.
As usual, Chester is given a choice between two differently colored squeaky balls to grab after they are tossed to him in our back yard. This year, the Kansas City Chiefs were represented by a yellow ball and the San Francisco 49ers were represented by a red ball.
The video attached below shows him in action. The sound is bad because it was so windy the afternoon of Chester’s pick.
As you can see (sort of of) Chester went for the red (49ers) ball first, although he did dither back and forth between it and the yellow ball several times after his initial pick. In the end, he ran off with the red ball, no doubt hoping we would chase him down and reward him with a treat.
And now for the complete disclosure: Chester has failed to correctly pick winner of the Super Bowl in the last two years.
Let your conscience (and your bookie) be your guide.

And now for the trout update. The alevin have now grown into fry at the White Mountain Elementary School “Trout in the Classroom” project. They have been moved from the nesting baskets into the main 55-gallon aquarium and are starting to swim around.
Teacher Rachel Lutterman sent me a video, where she says you can see one of them swimming, but I could not see any movement. However, I’ve attached a clip from the video where you can clearly see the outline of a fish on the bottom of the tank.
Stay tuned for more developments.
