Two more obstacles... A water dunk...and very welcomed at this point I might add and a jump over a fire pit and I was done. Because we start as a team, we finish as a team, so I waited till everyone was done and we all went over the firewall together.

Many ask me why I am so crazy to do this... There are many reasons. I can't tell you the exact order of importance but for me it's about pushing myself to limits beyond my believes. However and just as important it is also about human fellowship. It renews my spirit and my belief in humanity. It's about helping others who need my help and being humble enough to accept help from others...from those I know and complete strangers. It is an adventure to learn more about myself... To see how I react when I think I can't. It's about discipline, integrity and honor. And it reminds me that I can and I will. Doesn't matter how long it takes or what it takes to get there. It's about committing to myself and finishing.

Hello Everyone! The weather is beautiful here in central FL; very sunny and 65*. I think Kathryn and dh will welcome our sunny weather and warm temps when they arrive. I hope their flight is easy and uneventful.

Nice to see you back again Dawn! Yes, this is a very special, loving Village and I'm so grateful to be a part of it also!

((Cathy)) and dh, I am so sorry your ddog had to go back to her first home!

Nancy, I'm glad your knee keeps getting better and better! ((Hugs)) for the loss of your dcousin's dh!

RRose, Congratulations on finishing your Event!

I have just finished eating my lunch. I was able to get our a.m. routines done this morning. Still to do are several things including recording my and dh's meals in MFP, deleting emails, declutter and reorganize my purse and wallet and file store receipts in proper slots and give one ddog a bath, brush the other one. After that will be my normal Sunday afternoon R & R.

In Fort Lauderdale. Trip was longer than it should have been because we had almost an hour's delay getting a gate. But made up a lot of time compared to other airports, since the car rental was closer and quicker than a lot of them. Plus our suitcases were among the first 7 off the plane.

Found the hotel with only the street name and the rental car map for guidance. We are really not prepared for today!

I'm waiting to hear from my sister as to where I'm going tomorrow. She originally said she'd meet us at 4 but has moved that back to 2 and we'll go on a nature walk somewhere she's identified that is about 2 hours from each of us.

We have a Toyota Sienna so will be comfortable on the ride tomorrow. Honestly, it was the cheapest vehicle offered when I did the search through the Costco website.

I see Kathryn has traveled today too! Wow, you got there fast!

I agree, RRose, you are amazing! Not just with your physical accomplishments but also your helpful spirit. If I ever did something like that, I'd want you on my team for sure!!

Hello everyone!

I'm currently sitting in the SF airport. I allowed myself plenty of time, which is different from how dh travels. I prefer my way -- but I got to my gate an hour before boarding, so now I'm just waiting. I even bought ds a T shirt before I got to my gate. (I bought the girls fun socks at an art fair yesterday.) I have a middle seat on this flight. I couldn't change it. I hope I'm sitting next to someone friendly as I'll probably need to get up 2x during the flight.

For the first time, I have my boarding pass on my iphone. It feels weird but has worked fine so far. . . .

Dh and I met for lunch yesterday. Then, while he worked yesterday afternoon, I went shopping at one of the pier shopping areas. It wasn't pier one, but it is a well known market. There was an art fair and a farmer's market around it, so I enjoyed walking around those too! I rode a cable car back to the hotel rather than walking up umpteen steep blocks. Then, I worked on my photos and got most of them transferred onto the hard drive. This project is taking hours - but is almost done now. I'm doing this to prep moving to a new laptop, which dh is anxious to do. I am too. I got this one right before we went to Australia, Nov. 2007. Dh and I went to a cozy little Italian restaurant for dinner and walked around the plaza/park across from our hotel before calling it a night.

I think dh was very happy I came out to see him. It broke up the monotony, he said. It gave him someone to talk to, also.

Congratulations Dear Forever Friend Rosie! I was exhausted just reading about your day :o :shock: So, I guess not getting together tonight for the best New Mexico food around these parts has to be - for now. You need your rest and I need my rest. :lol: I'm proud of ya'!
