Memorial Day = Ski to Sea

Each Memorial Day, Jake and a team of 8 others participate in 8 leg race that starts at Mount Baker and ends in Bellingham Bay.  The weekend is packed with tons of people and fun activities.  Not to mention the 8 million dollars the race brings in to Whatcom County. 

Our house is always filled with out of town guests/racers and we don’t even have to fight traffic on Memorial Day (except to get a parking spot at the finish line)!  On the docket this year is the Grand Parade, a pre-race BBQ, a visit to the beer garden at the Fairhaven Festival, the finish line at Marine Park a post race BBQ and sunny, sunny days!

Happy l-o-n-g weekend!
