It's Sunday, Aug. 24 -- Day 17 of 17 for the 2008 Olympics, Day 21 of 22 for Scripps in China. And as you can see, we have blue skies for the finale.
A little late posting today because I got tied up with other things -- wrapup stuff like a column I'm working on, and packing.
My last event of the Beijing Games will be the men's water polo gold-medal match between the U.S. and Hungary at 3:40 p.m. (12:40 a.m. at home). I'll try to post a score as soon as possible in case anyone's staying up for it.
Other than that, I plan to have a couple of other post here as I tie up a few loose ends. Right now, I've got to get back up to the room for a couple of things, then I'm off to water polo.
