When to purchase airfare for the best deal
If you’ve ever found yourself fretting over how far in advance you should buy plane tickets in order to snag the best deal — and, really, who hasn’t? — you can relax. The airfare geeks at CheapAir.com revealed the answer on Thursday:
49 days if you’re flying domestic
81 if you’re flying international
Analyzing 560 million fare searches last year, CheapAir calculated that, on average, the best day to buy a domestic ticket was 49 days before flying.
Beware of buying too far in advance- seats purchased about 200 days ahead are almost as costly as last-minute fares.

What the heck is spelunking?
Definition: "the hobby or practice of exploring caves"
We took a trip out to Western Oklahoma to Alabaster Caverns State Park. We went on a 45 minute cave tour and saw a ton (ok, maybe more) of Alabaster Gypsum, bats, and lots of darkness!
2013 Creek Classic
The Creek Classic is a 1 mile/5K/10K race to benefit the Deer Creek School District. Bailey, Courtney, and Gray ran the 5K race.
Bailey showed Gray how old he is, and beat him handedly. Courtny blew both of the boys away with a great time.
Results
5K - Courtney...25:38
5K - Bailey.....34:28
5K - Gray.......Finisher
Congratulations to them all!
