2025 - September 23-27 - Black Belt Test 3rd Degree

 

Fantastic Fall - ice cream goes well into the season!

Field Trip to APT for "Midsummer Night's Dream"

Fantastic!

On the way home we stopped at Peck's

After 7 hours, I earned my 3rd degree black belt!

I cannot tell you how many times I did not think I'd make it.

It was a huge challenge physically, mentally, and emotionally.

This Taekwondo friend made it right alongside

I was half starved afterwards.

We went out for Mongolian Grill

The sky has been so beautiful!

Further out than my black belt at 100!

My board breaks for the test. 

I missed the last one the first time!

Good grief!

we used to go visit my grandparents.
