Caitlin, great to hear from u. I'll tellyour Dad. We're expecting your Mom and our twins any minute now. What am experience. Your Dad is a phenonominal trooper and inspired us all to do so well in the race. He was the one who gave the half time pep talk that spurrerd us to keep pushing so hard, and we took second. Yeah Deception!!
Steve, Been anxiously waiting for the greeting committee to post your arrival pics. They need to GET ON IT!!! Hope your team is showered, relaxed and reveling in your awesome accomplishment. Very proud of you. Love Aunt Terri
Bravely done,re; those repair jobs at sea! Glad you've arrived and hope you are kicked back now, having fun and celebrating. When you "row, row fast back home", give Lulu a kiss on her noggin for me too. Congratulations! Mom and Jim
Steve, So happy you made it safely. Congratulations on your most excellent adventure. I truly enjoyed following your progress and cheering your team towards the finish line. Now kick back, and get ready to party like a winner!!!! Have a great time in Hawaii this coming week. Great Job.
Much love, Aunt Terri
Mark Coleman - You make me so proud. Congrats to all of you and especially getting the leak under control. We have been cheering your success and watching constantly. You deserve that 2nd, great tactics!!!! Woohoo!!!! I say this for the 30 plus people following you in Ventura CA.
Steve,
I can't stand it but I have to leave my post at the computer and IonEarth to ride up North for my flight tomorrow. Watching this race has been a nail biting experience for me. Like Susie said, we've been stalking your boat. I actually bit my lip this morning when you hit the 100 mile mark! If you get to Hawaii before I get to Maryland, then more power to you and the team and CONGRATULATIONS in advance!!! Looking forward to celebrating with you and the crew. As Emily would say, you all are UBER AWESOME!
Ho'omaika'i Deception!Yea Peter/Daddy! We are so proud-it has been fun monitoring the adventure on the web. Lulu says, "Daddy row, row fast-home Daddy, number two?!"
All the girls miss you and can't wait to see you. Celebrations and a good nights sleep soon to come. Well done esp. for a new crew!
