The Eagle has Landed

Around 4 o'clock this afternoon, Ian called from work to say that he had just gotten off the phone with his father...and, much to our surprise, Jim was just down the street!!!!

Ian flew home from work with a couple of bottles of champagne (one to drink and one to pour over Jim's head!), along with a big bunch of flowers...and, after setting up the finish line, he got out the special order jerseys and the camera. We stood outside and waited until we saw Grandpa Jim come around the corner and then we rolled the camera. We were able to catch Jim's finish on video, along with lots of still photos. I'll have to do some uploading so all can enjoy.

Jim looks amazing. Full of sunshine and great stories. Some really great stories!!!!! Will post more later...but he is here and is safe and is very excited. We are very proud of him!!!!!!!
