Now we've come back from our friend Rob's "slothman" fest and are curled up on the couch with hot herbal tea and a roaring gas fire. We're finishing up the series "The War" produced by Ken Burns. It's a moving narrative of soldiers, their families, battles and how 4 American towns adapted to war time during WWII: Waterbury, CT; Sacrameto, CA; Laverne, MN; Mobile, AL. Highly recommend it.
Slothman was Rob's response to finishing his triathlon season on top, having had a great race at Beach to Battleship Ironman distance race in South Carolina on Nov 1. There were a few of us there that have one more week to go, but most people were happy to fill up on food, beer and to lounge in their finest pajama pants. Good times.
The best part of the evening was when someone pointed out that at this time next week we'll be done. That has a very nice ring to it. We are ready.
