We hope the weather cooperates and you get your chance to accomplish your goal. <BR/>We are thinking about you and are proud of you taking on such a huge goal. <BR/>I took the liberty of making some "Alan swam the English Channel" shirts with the picture from thisfront page of this blog for next years 4th of July T-Shirt. I figured the whole family can wear them whenever we come into Darlington or go to the beach. <BR/>Tell Lauri, Ben & Jacob hello and we hope everyone is having a very "Lampoon's" like European vacation. <BR/>Happy Birthday Ben! <BR/>Best of Luck!

We're staying in Dover in a place called Wallet's Court. The place is pretty cool but it's 300 years old and I'm scared it's going to fall down in our sleep. Anyways I miss you and I hope to see you soon.<BR/><BR/>BenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136924754818658762.post-658576790818597862008-09-22T23:15:00.000-04:002008-09-22T23:15:00.000-04:00Hey, This is the first time I have had a chance to...Hey, <BR/><BR/>This is the first time I have had a chance to check out the blog, it is really neat.

I went Whitewater rafting this weekend and I thought the water was cold but nothing compared to the Channel. We hope the weather gets better. Hang in there, think warm thoughts and know you can do it.<BR/>P.S. I haven't made it to masters swim on time yet. <BR/>FrankieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136924754818658762.post-91105399792564950922008-09-22T19:46:00.000-04:002008-09-22T19:46:00.000-04:003 hours and 45 minutes for approx. 7 miles is grea...3 hours and 45 minutes for approx. 7 miles is great mileage Allan! If my recollection is correct that's about a third of the Channel swim! Sounds like the training and exposure to the water is definetely on track. I hope the weather gives you your chance my friend, don't let up!<BR/><BR/>Marc BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136924754818658762.post-26553583184252120932008-09-22T17:20:00.000-04:002008-09-22T17:20:00.000-04:00hey allan hope you are having fun but more importa...hey allan hope you are having fun but more importantly how is ben tell him i miss him anjd tell onion and doris (anna) i said hey and tell bonnie to come back with a husband<BR/><BR/>from <BR/>erinErin Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473922041958914196noreply@blogger.com
