-Rolled back into Bellingham around midnight last night, thoroughly satisfied & wiped out after 48 miles of downwinding in 3 days. The Gorge really delivered (except for the 6 mans) this year.  I've had better races for sure, and there's a lot of room to improve, but like Romo says; "nothing ruins a good downwinder like turning it into a race."  Hard to believe after all of Carters warnings of big conditions, the absolute gong show I paddled through when we started catching the back of the skis. I think I asked 3 swimmers if they were ok. Maybe it was a language barrier. Utterly amazed, (but not really surprised) At Ana's 3rd place against the best in the world.  That's my kids babysitter! Dang.

-Took the GoPro out on Friday when we ran the whole course again in the morning... Swell City was massive (at least by my standards) but that dang lens makes it look kinda Rated PG.  Hope everyone makes it back safe & sound.

+It was a great week. I guess I wore myself out at the Gorge, slept a bunch two days afterwards.
+Maybe I also wore out a few of the others with the tight quarters, all the exciting runs, competitive spirit and being over caffeinated.\\
+I think it would be great to be able to find a place where we could all stay in or around the same place rather than be spread out all over the place. I know it would be tough to get more in the van. Maybe a few larger evening gatherings?
+Looking forward to next year,\\
+:D'
