XWA

John completed the XWA, a cross Washington mountain bike ride. It took him 6 days to go about 550 miles. The weather was great but the trail was very difficult at times. He enjoyed the comraderie in the group, too. Way to go, John!

Random Other Spring Activities

John did BWR Arizona. Joanna played soccer every week with the O50 Seattle Heat. We had a tiny bit of snow. Joanna saw Zarna Garg with Heidi, Lora, and Alison. We toured the Blue Origin factory. The new lightrail opened up. Alex came home from college (a very long summer). And we went to the Mariners game with the Tintles.

The end of club soccer

Julia did Surf GA soccer this year. She was able to balance that with school sports and academics. We are very proud of her organization and work ethic. She has decided to quit club soccer, so it's the end of an era. No one is too sad, though.

La Jolla 50s Hardcourts

Joanna got 5th place in the level 1 hardcourts, losing to Julie T 6-2 6-3 and then winning the back draw (some good wins). In doubles, we got 4th place, losing to number 2 and 3. It was a triumph just to play after struggling with the elbow so badly this year. What a fun tournament, great friends, and magical city. I would love to move there someday!
