Looking Back

Rachel this picture is for you……. One week ago today I was 30,000 feet above the ground flying to Panama City Beach. Isn’t it funny how you wait for a trip to come and then suddenly you travel through the Star Wars warp speed tunnel and you are sitting here on the other side. Wondering [...]

Gulf Coast….. Roast….. 1/2 Ironman

I was the girl smiling today. In the bathing suit with the sunshine on it. Seemed fitting this morning as Marit reminded me that my camp HTFU nickname was Miss Mary Sunshine. So that was me. And ironically that’s what I got called all day long on the course here at the Gulf Coast 1/2 [...]

Delta Delta Delta

Happy Mother’s Day to me! In the Atlanta airport eating a parfait, and at least I have Starbucks. This afternoon I paid two hundred and thirty dollars to fly my bike. TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY DOLLARS. The gate agent said the price and not only did I throw up in my mouth, but I shat [...]

Last Day on the Beach

Marit and I on the beach….. Our Saturday night picnic sponsored by Cherry M&M’s Ashley is the queen of Jim Carey faces……. It’s our last day on the beach.

Friday is for Foucs

Whew….. we’ve had the blowout day, the reunion day…. and yes it is true…… I was standing in front of the hotel waiting for Marit, in not much of anything before I realized Panama City Beach thought I was the new Hooters girl! Don’t worry! Don’t worry, we needed that day. The day to catch [...]

Day ONE!

Marit and I made it to the beach! Here is me, trying to surf and getting overtaken! We have many more pictures and now that Ashley has arrived the uncontrollable giggling has begun, although she shall try to blame me for it. We did decide however that after all, Ness was right when she described [...]
