So cold.....

Today just had to be the worst day of practice....at least in a long time. It was 26 degrees outside in addition to the wind chill, and the freezing cold water. I was literally and ice cube coming off of the water, plus our boat had so much water in it that when we flipped it over to walk it up the dock all the water froze on the dock making it slippery and hard for the rest of the team to get off the water. I felt bad for them but I was so cold and shivering I could hardly move nonetheless Cox the boat into the racks. The only real reason we practiced today was because we have a regatta this weekend and we haven't been on the water for one reason or another since Saturday....FYI we beat NC State last weekend and plan to TOTALLY eliminate W&M this weekend...until next post...laters

Three states, One Girl

No, this is not the beginning of a bad joke. It's actually the beginning of a cool trip. I had a conference in Boston a couple of weeks ago. That was my first time in MA, while there I took the opportunity to check off a couple of additional NE states that I'd never been too. Depending on who you ask NY may or may not be considered NE but in any case previously I'd only been as far north as CT. With this trip I also saw NH & ME. I actually had to look up the abbreviation for Maine because I'd never been and couldn't remember what it was 😅.  Coastal Maine was beautiful. I've obviously been on the east coast waters before but seeing it as a lush green forestscape was another thing entirely. I definitely see why it's the setting of so many Stephen King stories, it's hauntingly beautiful. New Hampshire was a bit more rustic than I expected in the most delightful way. Massachusetts (Boston) was fun to explore and I spent so much time doing something I ne...
