Montrose Beach: 2001/2012



At the finish of the 198-mile Ragnar Relay from Madison to Chicago, Krista snapped this photo of me as I made a beeline for the water at Montrose Beach. I love this shot, as well a this picture of the four girls on our twelve-person team enjoying the water while we waited to cheer in the arrival of Van #2 at the finish line:

 

As I stood on this beach I couldn't help but think about how Jason and I used to take Juliana down to this very sand when she was a wee little baby. Upon returning home after the race, I dug through my old picture albums and alas! Photographic evidence was found:

 

Time sure flies. It never would have crossed my mind back in 2001 that eleven years later I would be in the exact same spot- at the finish line of a nearly 200 mile relay race.



Also I no longer cut my own hair.
