Day 1689: Old friends are best friends!


Best friends for over fifty years!


We all married in 1971.  Judy and Claude in January, 
Mike and Laraine in early August and us in late August.  We all would have celebrated our 45th anniversaries together, but unfortunately, Mike's been dead for sixteen years now.  Nevertheless, Laraine got us a cake to share for this special occasion. 





It was a great day for many reasons, but being with these dear friends was the best.  Second, I hit 80 miles today.  So, I have 28 days to swim the last twenty miles.  The one bad thing that happened was that our hometown hero, Jenn Suhr, failed to medal at the Olympics.  She has been very ill for over a week and just couldn't perform. The whole community feels terrible for her.  Four years of preparation undone by a virus.
