6-27-2010 Raced the Morton Plant triathlon this morning. I really enjoyed myself. I saw a lot of my tri buddies and all seem to be having a great time. My body felt a little over trained for this race. Pushing myself in a sprint today was a real challenge.

Great Fathers Day 2010!

Talked to my son at the Indiana University dive camp. He said he really misses my cooking. He will be gone for 2 weeks.

Enjoyed having chicken crepes and a nice salad prepared by my daughter and wife.

Followed up by a game of tennis with my daughter.

Saturday 6-19-10

Spent the night at the Safety Harbor Spa. Jody and I brought our bikes and went for a ride after dinner. I woke up on Fathers Day and went for long run down to Philippe Park. Had a nice breakfeast, then back up to the room for a nap. This was a nice overnight retreat.

The Queen Bee!

Celebrated 25 years of marriage in 2009.

My son Thomas, age 16. Sometimes I wish we could trade places with each other for a while.

My little girl Jackie, age 19 is all grown up now. (2010)

Swim practice at the Carlouel yacht club. It is located down the street from where I live. I love swimming here in the morning as the sun comes up. I know things don't last forever, but I sure hope this does.

Sand Key 2009 Tri

I don't know who this lady is on my left but this picture was taken about 200 yards before the finish. On the last 50 yards she decides to pass me and crosses the finish line just in front of me. All the professional pictures taken of me crossing the line have her in front of me. Needless to say, I won't be purchasing any of those pictures. I vow to never again to let anyone pass me in the last 50 yards.
