I rode to bike expo yesterday too, Mimi; so sorry to have missed you! It was a cold, foggy, 34 degree start but the ride back to Logboom in the afternoon sunshine was spectacular! Also, I thought of Donald while I was listening to Chris Ragsdale's presentation; Donald's blog account of meeting Chris' wife in her professional capacity when he was initially lobbying for an exercise bike in his room at Swedish was a great story and I smiled anew remembering and appreciating what a great raconteur we had in Donald (great randonneur too, of course!).

Speaking of exercise bikes, on April 13th we are going to commemorate/ inaugurate the new exercise bikes at Swedish hospital. We raised enough $$$ for two bikes, one in the Pediatric ward, the other in the Oncology ward. And they're finally ready to go.

Yay, Mimi!!! You know, it's funny - but I think about you and Raleighdon way too much for 2 people I have never met. I read enough about his bike exploits (and I mean that in the best possible way) that sometimes when I don't feel like exercising, riding, whatever - it gets my butt out the door. He was and still is such an inspiration. It's a good thing, and I'm so grateful to you both for sharing as much as you have. Please continue sharing as you feel like it - about you and about him. I'm sure there are still good stories waiting to be told!

Blueberry, many people have said that about Donald. Even some of his doctors. As he was getting sicker, one of his doctors was getting on his bike BECAUSE OF Donald. we'd see the guy on the street and he'd say "I just wanted you to know I've dedicated THIS ride to you too"
I think that Donald finally understood (mostly) how important he was to people.

That's wonderful! I was wondering what became of that.

That's great, Mimi. Don definitely has a legacy that will live on and on in more ways than one. He's inspired a lot of people, many of whom he never met.

This article is about the status of women in the military and is mostly quotes from/about my DIL's experience. It was just published, although the research was done a few months ago.
