January 22 6:45AM CST

Luna-Tic Challenge Meters through day 21 of 31 = 10,207,325 meters
Our Minimum Challenge Goal (Kona2’s prerogative) = 14,700,000 meters
Daily Rowing Goal to Meet Kona2’s Challenge Goal = 474,000 meters
Cumulative Target for Day 21 = 9,954,000 meters
and WE Are Above Our Cummulative Target on Day 21!
We are doing GREAT! But It’s Not Time To Rest Yet!


Total meters on the day = duh, I don’t know… So there is no accountability consequence on Challenge Team Luna-Tics today. I didn’t decide to do this report until last evening, after checking in with Just 27. But maybe I can figure this out tomorrow.
Crew on the roster = 109

Excellent progress, Luna-Tics! Thanks Moose - cheer 'em onward!

I haven't found the gym with the Concept2 rowers, but I did find one of Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville places....raised a glass and said "Cheers to the Luna-Tics!"

Only 8 or 9 more rowing days in THIS challenge - you can do it team!

That's an enticing looking beach shot, Baz ... little overcast in the late afternoon, was it? What kinds of things did y'all find in the tide pools?

Hi Chris...yes it was a little overcast on a couple of the days and we had a couple of storms, typical for this time of the year. These rock pools were great; lots of small crabs, fish, star fish...the kids loved it. Janet and Tomo were also 'feeding' stingrays that were about 2-3 feet across just around from this beach. They come in when you are cleaning fish......late afternoon was good for catching salmon off the beach.....

And whilst us Aussies can perhaps become a little blase about kangaroos...there were wallabies around the beach and in the bush you can see just behind the beach.....this photo is from a nearby beach (took it from the web to give you an idea of what it is like)..

Were the wallabies just going to a quick swim, or was something chasing them into the ocean!?

Howdy...no, usually they gather in the dunes and beach front area becuase of fresh grass shoots. this picture was taken at Pebbly Beach were there are always 'roos around...
