post race travels
Trampoline fun with Willa
Auntie Chuck's b-day present from last year
Picking strawberries for jelly with Aunt Mae, Becky, and Grandma
30 quarts of strawberries!
13 hrs of pure joy!
Crossing the finish line at the 13 hr mark was a dream come true. It had rained on me for the past 3 hrs and it was so cold, I couldn't keep my legs warm. I was exhausted, freezing, and my legs felt like they could snap at any moment. Why would anyone do this to themselves???

Cleaning toilets in paradise

So cool!
A few minutes later I caught this nice size wave and as I was dropping into the wave a dolphin was in the wave coming at me. It was so close that I could've reached out and grabbed its' fin. It was surfin the wave that I was on, only it was going the opposite way. I thought for a moment that it might knock me off my board and just then it crossed all the way underneath my board. I had my mouth wide open as I was completely shocked! I've never seen that or heard of it happening but last night I surfed with the dolphins!

2- I hate finger nail files! I can't stand having my nails filed or listening to others file their nails. Just thinking about it right now is making my stomach turn. It's like nails on a chalk board I guess.
3- I really want a dog! A clone of my friend's dogs, Maverick or Alta. They are awesome dogs who love the outdoors as much as I do. They camp, run, go on mtb trips, snowboard trips...just great dogs with awesome personalities.
4- I really want to visit New Zealand, Patagonia, Whistler, and Banff some day soon.
5- Wow...this is really hard! I love eyes...yes, I love people's eyes. They say so much without saying a word. I especially love how unique we are all created and that there are so many different shades of brown, blue, hazel, green....
6- I enjoy doing bike maintenance. Random huh? I love working on my or other people's bikes...I don't know what it is about it but I can get lost in the garage for hours working on bikes. I should take a class to further my mechanical skills
7- I don't drink coffee or beer. I have nothing against anyone who does but I just really can't acquire the taste for either. Sad huh? I guess God didn't give me those tastebuds :) I prefer to drink green liquids...
