Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads.

Well, Zazu is shipped off to Wisconsin, all alone in that little dark crate... Poor Zazu. At least he's not broken.

So yes, we successfully got Zazu mostly finished in time for shipping last week! We're still planning on meeting all next week to fine-tune stuff and add said fine-tuning finishes to Zazu once we get to Milwaukee (mostly it's just details with the wheels and sizing and kickers and such).

Yesterday we presented Zeus at the community center for a bunch of kids, who all seemed to enjoy the show. I have no idea how we'll be able to present Zazu, since it'll only be able to kick soccer balls which isn't exactly what you could call safe for little kids. Well, that and lifting, so at least there's that still.

Regionals start this week, so we'll be keeping an eye on all the matches to see what general strategies work best and start planning what we'll be doing in Wisconsin. Based on what we've seen/heard so far it really looks like the scores will be quite low, but hopefully we can change that a bit :)
