Mitchell and the Triathlon

By Pam Jorgensen -
Mitch's Varsity Team (the 14-15 year olds in Scouts) went to Pima, AZ to participate in a triathlon.
Mitch did nothing to prepare.
He borrowed a nice bike from the family he babysits for but that's about all.
They left Friday night and rose EARLY Saturday morning for the race.

Mitch needs some meat on his bones!


I miss the pool
Mitch does not


Done with the water...what's next?


Bike ride was the easiest part

I'm proud of Mitch for participating
He did better than everyone thought he would
I love his willingness to do what is right

Has my absence made your heart grow fonder?

By Pam Jorgensen -
Just wondering... I'm back I'm behind I'm intimidated There is no way that I can "catch up" with this blog.  It's a daunting task.  It's one reason I'm so far behind!  I want to post but then I see the enormous amount of time and posts that have past since my last and I walk away. So...I will sum up.   Sorry...wordy and no pictures. After our fun trip to Moberly, MO, we joined Jen, her kids and Gma J in a caravan to SLC for the Plewe Family Reunion.  We were so excited to be traveling with family making travel life more fun with cousins!  We did have fun but the hellish travel trends continued to plague us!  At one stop Gma locked her keys in the car...we waited for a LONG time till AAA could come and break us in.  This put us into our first stop pretty late but nothing unmanageable.  However, when we got to our hotel in Cheyenne, WY the hotel we had a reservation at (and called to confirm just a couple hours before) had given our ...
