Besides competing, this is the one week I have been looking forward to all year. I’m currently on my 2 week break from swimming and tomorrow I leave for hiking/fishing trip in northern Michigan for a week. I return next Friday for a glorious tailgate and the start of Michigan football season. I’m not sure it gets any better. I’m headed to Isle Royale, an island in Lake Superior, and America’s least visited national park. It’s a pretty tough place to get to, but I think it will be well worth it. It will be good break and I’m excited about not using a phone or computer for a week (if you try to call me I’m sorry). Last year we went to Yellowstone and that was unreal. Hopefully this trip will rival it. I’ll definitely get a post up next weekend about the trip.
I added some more pictures today that a friend took in Irvine. I’m still hoping to get pictures up from past trips but I will have to dig for them. Today I also accepted the USA invite for short course worlds in Dubai this December. I’m banking on that being a once in a lifetime experience.
Anyways, not much else going this week…Been slowly putting my life back together since I’ve been home. The stack of mail and list of things to do has kept me busy for the past few days. It’s nice to have a break though!
