Let the Games Begin

If you've followed Will and Jenni's blogsite "Sleepless in Seattle" you will already know that Will (our Adventure Runner) was picked to run in the Western States 100 Mile Adventure Race. He qualified for this honor by completing a previous 100 miler adventure race during the past year. You'll want to read all about it on their blogsite.
Anyway, when we heard the good news we took about 2 seconds to talk it over and decided that we needed to be there to support this fabulous event. I was able to take time off from the pharmacy and Tessha thought she could go with us. We asked for and received permission to take Sitani with us to cheer Will on.
We left IF Wednesday June 23 after I got home from Summer School and went straight to Orem where we had a room for the night. We met up with Kristi and the kids at Red Lobster. Dinner was fun but not near as fun as eating with the Sugies
and holding Larry the Lobster.
After dinner we all went swimming at the hotel. In fact, Mark, Peggy and 3 of Afton's girls came over and swam with us.



The next morning (Thursday)

we drove to Reno, Nevada. Of all the times we've driven that road, I've never taken the opportunity to walk out on the salt flats
so during a rest stop that exactly what Tessha, Sitani and I did.

















And of course, Sitani watched DVDs while we drove.

All this fun and we haven't even gotten there yet. More to come....
