Today everyone will be saying, “I can’t believe it is March”. Whereas I’ll be wondering if there isn’t another Olympic event I could be watching right now!
I loved the Olympics!! Two and a half weeks in February with Olympic events to watch, thanks to the extensive TV coverage. So many events, some new to me, such as the ski mountaineering! Wow! It’ll be interesting to see if that activity continues in future winter Olympics. Then there were moments I would turn on the tv and see a curling event. How many curling events are there!?!
My sketch of the Olympic rings in this post is a reminder of the meaning of the interlocking rings: the event is to unify the world. I think it did.
I hope you had an opportunity to watch the winter Olympics. Amazing athletes in a variety of sports and our chance to view them on television for a couple of weeks. I’m going to miss it …
But wait… the Paralympics are happening in Milan and Cortina, Italy now! I can still watch more events! More amazing athletes …
Then I will look forward to the summer Olympics, actually held in October 2026 in Dakar, Senegal and in 4 years the summer and winter Olympics and Paralympics again! Also mid- month it is tennis time for BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells, CA! Hoping the tv coverage is good. I love watching sports!
I am proud to say my niece is a U.S. Paralympic ski coach and is there now w/ her athletes. If you saw the news during the Olympics regarding the first mother son Olympians, skiers from
Mexico, she is my niece’s college friend from
Skidmore. My niece Lyndsay coached Sarah in the last 2 Olympics. She was unable to do it this year now that she is working for the U. S. Team.
Wow! Kudos for her coaching and am looking forward to seeing the events as these athletes are all amazing!
