Overrun by swine, and a good problem

My daughter is on her fifth day of fever. Both sons had it. At least 10% of the school district is out sick on any given day. Sons report 1/4 of their classes had substitute teachers today.

(No, I can't be sure it's swine flu, but it's definitely flu of some sort, and oh boy is it contagious!)

The "good" problem:
My serious runner son Greg will be running in THE big cross-country meet of his high school career (he's a senior) on Saturday afternoon. My daughter Laura, selected from a large pool of flute players, will be playing in the Area All-State concert . . . on Saturday afternoon. At the exact same time Greg runs. A 30-45 minute drive apart. Gah!
