Actual Game ended in a Stalemate.  Can you do better?

  Part 1: Avoid stalemate!
  Part 2: Mate in 5 is the best I found!

yep mate in five, its just getting that first pawn to promotion but obviously it needs to be a rook to avoid stalemate, nice little endgame puzzle though i certainly need to work on it more.

Alternate solution to the nice puzzle (alternate R move. It is still mate in 5):
