Shout-Outs: My Brother, Eric

Pappy and Eric celebrate a first-place finish.

I just wanted to go ahead and give a shout-out to my older brother, Eric.

Earlier today he came in first-place in the 30 meter motorized wheelchair race in the northwest Iowa regional round of the Special Olympics!!

As a result of today’s victory, Eric will be competing on the campus of Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa, next month in his quest to acquire another gold medal.

Given today’s triumph I figured it was only fitting to hook him up with an official shout-out here at “Blank Stares and Blank Pages.”
