Well, last weekend was the MS 150. This ride is meant to help raise money for Multiple
Sclerosis. My family have many
cousins and friends who have this
unfortunate disease and it just is painful to watch them live through it. When my parents first started this 150 mile bike tour it was kind of a joke in our family because my mom is such a wimp, but now its something that i want to do when i am out of high school. I have first hand seen the effects it has on a family and on a persons lifestyle, and I would never wish for someone to have to go through the pain that my mom's friend has gone through.

Team Donaldson:178 riders

The bike area

Mom and Dad, Dad was just a little grumpy as you can tell by his face

Then mom and dad
again in
Duluth.
This ride, just this year has raised 2.7 million dollars to help find a cure, and just the Donaldson team raised $92 thousand. As always i wish everyone the best of luck next year.
In my life things have been very mellow. I now have practice at 6:00 AM and then go home (biking home) and sleep until my mom yells at me to wake up. Typical teenager attitude there! Aaron is now having
recruiters out looking at his performances on the bike! So that is something that we all are proud of!
