No, this is not me. It's stock photography of the Quarry Lake on Pure Austin's website, thank you pureaustin.com.
On Sunday I swam a mile (2 laps around Quarry Lake). It was my first extreme distance in open water. The Quarry is a great little lake behind Pure Austin Gym in North Austin. The Aquatics Instructor gave us a pre-triathalon workshop chalked full of pointers and spotting techniques. It was really helpful! Unbeknownst to me I got completely sunburned while out there (while wearing SPF 45, the water washed it all off), so I am staying indoors all week.
Dan on the other hand has been out side a little more that he wanted to! We got a new car around Thanksgiving and it's a 2005 year model, well this fancy new car left my husband stranded on the side of the highway yesterday while going out of town on a business trip. Before the trip--the computer on the car started wigging out and so he took it into the dealer. They checked it out--put it on a computer there, and said it must have been a glitch. They sent Dan on his way and WHAMMO, right outside of LaGrange the thing just DIED. Dan was in his business suit waiting in the HEAT on the side of the road for a replacement car to come. A replacement car did come and they were very apologetic, but still! We'll see how this pans out--the car was Certified Preowned when we bought it--the only thing it had been brought in for was cupholders so go figure!
Here's the latest on the rest of the fam: Katie and Diego are coming July 9-13. Jamie and I are going to visit Aunt Annie and Amy & Johnny Aug 1-3. Finn starts Karate tomorrow! The boys start swimming lessons on Tuesday! Busy times for us but so fun--all summer all the time!
