Catching up...

So I just noticed that I never posted photos from my 5k race that I did back in July! That was pretty much one of the items on my 'list' of things to do in my life. Except I never really THOUGHT I'd make the time to train for and do it.... but this summer I did!! It's the first step in my ultimate goal of completing a (mini) tri-athalon. I'm thinking of doing the All Women's Tri-athalon in Portland next summer.... but there is always the Granite Man tri-athalon that is near my parents... so we'll see. 
Anyhow, I don't have any photos of me actually doing the run. There are some out there but I haven't received them yet (a reminder to bug Matthew again). So here is what I have for now.... The tall guy in the photo to the left is my friend Matthew. He beat everyone in the race (and was less than half my time!!).







I also never posted any photos from our fun camping weekend in Haynesville, ME.Every summer Marc and Tracy, Chris and myself go up to Tracy's family camp for a relaxing camping weekend. It is so beautiful up there with all of the trees around us and no one to bother us. It's quiet and peaceful and this year we got to enjoy it with another member of the family, Lexie! She was so good up there too! I think she really enjoyed it and so did we. Other than her first night of not sleeping (and whining in the crate) we figured out that she could handle sleeping on the air mattress with us. :)  Here is a photo of the little camp that we stay in. No electricity, no running water and no cell service! Well that's all for this post.... the next topic deserves a post all its own. :)
