Get Lucky

This week I'm celebrating the victory of Daft Punk and Pharell Williams' hit "Get Lucky" for winning Record of the Year at the Grammy's last Sunday. It was a great song off a great album. Glad RAM and Daft Punk did so well.

This past week I was truly busy as I had 12 stories/staff reports to get ready for the paper. I also photographed three basketball games and two hockey games.

Last night I covered the first of three doubleheaders for this week. It turned out to be a really exciting night as the Jacks men won in overtime. The others are Bottineau basketball on Thursday and Westhope-Newburg basketball on Friday. Expect pictures from those for next week.

This week, I have photos from the other five games I had in the past week or so. Enjoy, and follow me on twitter @typhoonater467 to see updates on Bottineau area sports and other things too.
