PARALYMPIC TRIALS DAY 8

Not much to say but……IT’S OVER!!!!  IT’S OVER!!!  IT’S OVER!!!!!!!!!!! We did it!!!!!!     WE ARE GOING TO CHINA!!!!!  Maureen and I have won the trials. We don’t even have to sail tomorrow.  We will sit on the sidelines and watch.

Thanks for everyone’s support.  We couldn’t have done it without you.  We are so excited.  We both cryed at the finish.  It was quite emotional.  I’ll update more tomorow.
