thanks to the jacksons

ok so there wasn't an action shot to prove that i got up the first time but at least i was documented in the bumblebee dry suit (post face plant). i was invited onto a friend's boat last week to go wakeboarding on lake washington and was a bit apprehensive to step foot into the water because a) it was cold at night and b) i wasn't sure if i'd be able to get up. with some inspiration after seeing a few of the guys rip it up on the wake and seeing duncan do a back flip i realized that i had to step up to the plate.

this is where i have to thank annie & jeff for being so patient with me last summer at their lake cabin in maine. it took two days for them to coach me on the art of getting your ass out of the water and by some freak of nature last wednesday it all just came back to me.

i'm telling you - nature is my new religion.
