Monday Moment

Monday Moment: A moment, a tiny bite of life, writing, etc.

Writing Prompts (jolt-size):

In the rain . . .

or

Standing in the rain . . .



Fave pics from the weekend (between rain showers) at the Kenmore Canoe and Kayak Race:

End of the 5k race - my oldest daughter and a friend in a C2 (Canoe with 2 people)
(They took 1st place Juvie C2 - no contenders in their age and boat class)
 
 


After the 10k race - my youngest in a k1, and my hubs on the dock.
(K1 means Kayak with 1 person)
(She took 3rd place bantam K1 - that's an age and boat designation)
 
 
Both my girls dream of 2020 . . .
(It's kind of a big dream . . . but not impossible.)
 
 
What's your big dream?

    Glad both of your kids did so well. Even if one didn't have any competition. Still a win though!

    All I can come up with is "Standing in the rain...I see the raindrops." It's always fun to compete even if you don't win.

    Doesn't that look wonderful? And congrats to your daughter for coming in 3rd in that race.

    what a great goal. Dreams are the kick starter to goals. Doing it is the finish line.

    Congrats to your kids. They are fortunate you live in an area where they can participate in races.

    Looks like good times. I've never been kayaking. I'll have to do that someday.

    I wish I could say I have a big dream in this world... but with age, my dreams are cut of simpler stuff.

      I still have big dreams . . . although I've been willing to lay down some of my old ones - I decided a year ago that I don't think I'm going to climb Mt. Rainier . . .but I still want to skydive someday. :)

    Kayaking? ... it's obvious that you guys had fun!
    And your kids have probably inherited that go-getter attitude from their mom, eh?
