The Start of Summer

Some people celebrate Memorial Day as the start of summer.

We dace to a slightly different beat, patterned after arm splashes, spinning wheels and pounding feet. Our summer season starts with Matt’s first triathlon. This was Pocomoke weekend.

It was Matt’s 5th year running the race, and while he claims that the field was too slim, his endurance and ambition paid off. He placed 16th overall and 2nd in his age group, resulting in his first real metal.



While I was proud of him, my joy came from watching my girls soak up the sun and sand on the Ocean City beaches.


And our mass consumption of taffy and doughnuts of course.

And don't forget the pirate ship that let us drink all afternoon.
