Alpine Skiing and other Olympic games

Andrea Fischbacher won Gold
Tina Maze won Silver
Lindsay Vohn won bronze.

Almost makes ya wonder if being towards the beginning hurts ya! Cause, other than those that fell, everyone had a better time than the one before them. I don't know if that says something to the ability, the seeing those ski marks from before or having the snow sheen down from previous skiers. No matter what the reasons there's something about it. And a good run for them all!

Apolo Ohno is getting ready to go up for the Quarter-finals Men's 1000m. Shani Davis did a great job earlier getting the silver in the 1500m for speed skating. My personal favorite is J.R. Celski though. To have a comeback like this after such an injury. I like how it looks like such a breeze to us here in the comfort of our homes. But you can really tell how fast their going by how they have to put their hand down to balance themselves around the turns. I sure would like to know how fast they do go.

The athletic abilities these Olympians have is amazing. I know, that's why they're here. Chips to them all! Still have to find out what it takes to be on an Olympic team. My daughter wants to be int he 2020 Summer Olympics for volleyball!

All about Applemama

I'm a homeschool mother of 4 wonderful children. My girls are 11, 4 and 2. My only son is 8 and full of energy. We live in rural PA, and have 8 chickens, 5 rabbits, 3 cats, 3 ducks, and one mouse.

We were married here 11 years ago and moved off to FL - then to VA - and now back here after my husband's job was uprooted and not transplanted. He found a job to work in his field (at least somewhat) and we are taking a wonderful opportunity to move back to where we met. We have old friends here and enjoy reconnecting with the church where we were married. We love it and are making many new friends.
