What do mean is Luna a swimmer yet? Are we talking butterfly, backstoke,breaststoke,dog paddle. She does it all. Plus blind retrieve at 25 yards. No beer out of fridge yet. Plus she is house broke.

Congratulation to the many milestones over the past few days, and go the Luna-tics in the challenge!

We were heading off to Fiji tomorrow (Friday) however, we’ve now delayed the trip as they have experienced cyclonic weather over the past week and I’m sure the last thing they need is more inbound tourists’.

We’ve got a four-day break in Australia so looking forward to that in any case, TomO on school holidays from today!

Cheers, BBB :D

I made it through March madness (barely). I had a migraine on March 31st which was my 25th day. I sucked it up and rowed the slowest 5,000m of my life just to earn my certificate.

I have already been on the water three times, which is unusual for me at this time of year. I am notoriously an April break starter. (I'm a teacher. It seems like April break has always been a good time to get back on the water as I can come home from my early morning row and nap.) It has been so nice in New England this past month, I just couldn't say no to rowing, so I started early.

Since will be rowing more, I will be erging less. As I erg less, I tend to check the forum less. If anyone ever has a question for me, don't hesitate to shoot me a personal message. If there is any information you think I'd like to hear, shoot me a pm with that info as well. I'm always a Looney even when I'm not checking out the forum or erging as frequently.

Thanks for the constant motivation you guys and gals give me. I am perpetually impressed by what you do. I just hit 5 million LIFETIME and there are people on this team doing that in a season. I do admire you!

Congrats on all the many accomplishments this season and for those yet to come.

Hey all you Lunies,

Since March Madness ended I have taken a few days off. Tomorrow we are leaving for Chicago to see the GRANDBABIES while I will be erging, Johnboy has a model c, internet connection may be spotty. So if you don't hear from me until the 16th or 17 th don't panic.

It's been in the high 80's in FLA the past 2 weeks, looking forward to some 50's and 60's in the Windy City.

Happy Easter to all see you around the 17th.

Obviously we have competitive rowers within, Chris... I've been feeding mine for the last 52 years! (He's starting to feel ripped off about the lack of Olympic medals tho...) :lol:

I missed this earlier, :lol: :lol: :lol:
