Scott discovered an eagle in this tree at the park. Can you find it? "Those who hope in the Lord...will soar on wings like eagles, will run and not grow weary, will walk and not be faint" (Isaiah 40:31).

Everyone anticipates jumping into the lake.

The swimming commences.

Smooth the cow provided us all with chocolate milk after the race. It's a great recovery drink (protein and carbs, just what the body needs).

Some friends got Tracy a celebratory cake from Whole Foods. It was amazing, and very much appreciated!

Celebrating with friends later during the day...the same friends who brought the cake. Thanks, Steinkraus family!
