Our time at Sandpipers is winding down quickly. It’s hard to believe we’ve been here for 5 months. Since our last blog, we’ve thoroughly enjoyed our routine of exercise and relaxation with our extended family. The weather has definitely started to get much warmer so we can tell that spring is here and summer is on the way. The highlight of the past month has been the annual Sandpiper Olympics that took place over the past couple of weeks. During that time there were 37 events with 280 medals given out to 90 different Olympians. Claudia and I participated in most of those events and between us we accumulated 13 medals including 6 gold, 4 silver and 3 bronze. The following is a summary of our medal winnings:
GOLD SILVER BRONZE
Co-Ed Water Volleyball – Ed Softball Toss – Claudia Men’s Water Volleyball - Ed
Football Toss – Claudia Shark & Friends – Ed Pickle Ball - Claudia
Shot Put – Ed Softball Distance Throw – Ed Bean Bag Toss - Ed
Charmin Plunge – Ed & Claudia Basketball - Ed
Decathlon – Ed
For those that are really curious about what some of these events consist of, just send us a message and we’ll be glad to explain. The truth is, we just had so much fun from the opening ceremonies until the closing. My personal highlight was winning the coveted gold medal for the decathlon. Now it’s time to start our preparations for getting back on the road. We’re saying goodbye to many of our friends as they begin to leave. In just over 2 weeks it’ll be our turn. As hard as it is to leave, we’re excited about the places we plan to see in April through July as well as our return to family and friends in August. We’re also excited about the thought of enjoying our new motor home in some remote locations for the first time. Once we hit the road, stay tuned for regular updates and photos. We’ll do our best to keep this site up to date.
