That would be me... and my papi! Just out of the water, after swimming across the Columbia River. My second bout in the Roy Webster Cross Channel Swim (last year i couldn't due to the hand), and his 29th! (He was actually announced in the list of top long-timers, the most being 36, a few 34s, a 30 I think, and my dad who has basically swum every year for as long as i can even remember!)

I think he was strangely impressed at my by-the-seat-of-my-pants(er swimsuit) at-arm's-length SP skills! He said, "Wow, that was fast!" *giggle*

*whole body tired & aching, off to nap a little*

Liz & went to meet up with Aaron & some youth kids, in The Dalles... for "swimming" (which quickly switched/turned into "cliff jumping")

yeah... I'm over that! Been there, done that, bruised my bum/tailbone & ended up in & out of the chiropractor's office for the rest of the summer... no thanks, not anymore! I sat, and watched, and encouraged Aaron to abstain from "the big one", despite all the little ones trying their peer pressure to the contrary!

Did you wake up on the right or the wrong side of the bed today? Maybe your morning's running right on time or a little late Head out; Traffic's slow on the interstate Take the back way Will this be a good or a bad day? Well don't you worry
