Can you imagine doing this much work and lugging kids around with you AND having to dodge the French Revolution! What a woman.

Lance Armstrong, who just won the Tour de France for the fourth consecutive time, said something interesting in his book, "It's not about the Bike, My Journey Back to Life" - to paraphrase - "What freaks us out is that we haven't yet begun to tap into human potential. We don't yet know what we are capable of as humans."
For those of you who don't know his story, it's a great read about a guy who was a pro cyclist, was diagnosed with testicular cancer that had spread to his lungs and his brain, and who won the battle with cancer and then went on to win what is arguably the most grueling sports event on the planet, the Tour.
As I just looked at a painting on this forum by William Whitaker, I know we are capable of unimaginable things.
