so very much to love about this swim and the friendship that (can) carry us through, should we be blessed to enough to have one like you and Barb do! xx
Hi Peter, Thanks so much. Yes, in addition to just enjoying each other, I think we're validating something in each other - a desire to have those strengths recognized and celebrated. People who see either one of us don't necessarily see "athlete" anymore, but -- we each see that in the other.

This is so beautiful Mariah. Your writing - and expression - conveys a sixty year bond of caring, intelligence and strength.
