    That is SOOO fantastic; I know you're proud!! He's a rockstar!

    Our family has a bazillion pictures from that exact Crabtree spot... beautiful trail; did you start at the top and hike down, or from the bottom?

    He had a GREAT TIME! It only took me 10+ years to get him in on the sport, but I finally DID it.

    Jennifer~we hiked up about 2 hours but had to turn around for time and the fact that it was raining. :(
    John is determined to get to the top next time.

    Thanks for all the congratulations. The tri was a blast! I'll definitely do SML again and some others too. I have an awesome coach, cheerleader, photo team, and support system!

    The kids were really great to see cheering as well.

    WTG, Hubs!

    Then a 2 mile hike next day?

    Insane!

    Hey, sister, I just GOTTA ask: Do you have a "thing" for my p*ssy-@$$ recumbent bike Morrissey? Because you keep asking me if I rode him this past weekend or that day or whatever.

    But if you love him - I mean REALLY love him - I won't stand in your way ... IF you can make him happy.

    Just promise to treat him right, is all.
