Jeff left
for South America to join the Amazon Express Expedition that paddled the entire
length of the Amazon River from a newly identified source, to the
Atlantic. He would be away for the next
4 months paddling 3600 miles of the 4100 mile expedition. (Documentary, Peeled Faces of the Amazon).

CR100
2012, 100 – Tandem Womens, Debbie Richardson
I called
this the trifecta or the triple crown of racing from Texas; to complete all 3
of the best known marathon races in one season.
I believe I am the only female to have done so. The CR100 is now a 100k so for now, the accomplishment
stands.

Jeff is
off again. This time to Russia to
participate in the Volga River Expedition, the first descent of Europe's longest river. Gone 3 months this time
and paddled 2300 miles source to sea.
June
Grand
Depart, Tour Divide – 300 miles.
Scratched at the border. I came
home injured but glad to see Jeff and my family. Intervention from the universe? I don’t know.
On
October 18th, my father passed away.
He had been recovering from an illness in June but well enough that I
felt comfortable leaving. I would not
trade the precious time with him I was gifted.

Other

Trips to Big Bend twice a year, to Boston to see family and participate in
my brother’s 1st gravel event the D2R2. A niece has graduated college, a nephew neck
deep in it and a niece doing a semester in Israel.
My
beautiful Slaten and Spencer boats are still out there on the rack and I’m occasionally
on the water but I am so happy to be back on the bike!
I have an
idea about what is next. I sent an
email, reserved a room got a plane ticket...
Now just
ride. Oh, and I have a new bike :D
