Proper South Austin accommodations must ALWAYS have Lone Star neon... but not always in the children's twin bedroom.
cooperella:
our rental for the weekend
cooperella:
cool little stainless kitchenette
cooperella:
a disco ball in the kitchen? sure, why not.
cooperella:
the evidence suggested that our hostess knew how to have a good time.

pin-up girls and wall-to-wall mirrors in the bathroom, of course.
cooperella:
sweet hat.
cooperella:
MIRRORS!
cooperella:
sweet light fixture looked even sweeter from directly below.
cooperella:
i am surprised! and maybe a little buzzed! Kyle tricked me into having too much wine at dinner Friday night.
cooperella:
Kyle is DEFINITELY buzzed.
cooperella:
definitely.
cooperella:
the fan that Kyle thought would burn the house down if we left it on all night.
cooperella:
it was a pretty sweet fan.
cooperella:
the yard area
cooperella:
the expansive pond where the frog who croaks all night lives.
cooperella:
expansive. the frog who croaks all day lives in the lower pond.

Joan Benoit Samuelson & Lance Armstrong hamming it up at Livestrong HQ. A very awesome Q&A session which ended in Joan talking Lance into running with her in the half marathon the next morning. He finished in 1:22 (an hour ahead of me).

Joan & Lance
cooperella:
I bought new yoga pants at the expo. had to try them out.
cooperella:
kyle bought a new jacket. his large biceps didn't fit in the sleeves so we had to take them off.
cooperella:
he thinks he looks pretty good in it. and out of it too, apparently.
cooperella:
i found a better use for the sleeves that Kyle's large biceps won't fit into. Sundress shrug! ;)
cooperella:
BIB!
cooperella:
rode our bikes to the start in the dark of morning. We look so fresh, don't we?
cooperella:
a claustrophobe's nightmare trying to get out of the finish area after the race... look at all of those sweaty, smelly people! GROSS!
cooperella:
Kyle & I at the livestrong tent after our race. I feel like my eyes look crazy in these pictures, but I'm not sure why. Maybe I have the runners high?
cooperella:
Flash pic would be better, if it weren't for the blinding glare off our jackets. We still look pretty fresh, in my opinion. Thank god there were no cameras around about 2 hours after this was taken.
cooperella:
I ran all those miles with three people pinned to my back. No, not literally. Six extra legs might have gotten me to the finish faster, though... maybe I'll give it a try next time.
