I just registered for the Alcatraz Sharkfest Swim in 2010. It’s a 1.5 mile swim from Alcatraz to the mainland through shark infested waters. And I convinced Summer to do it with me. Does that make me a bad parent?

For some strange reason, this swim landed on my life goal list the second I heard about it. Just seems like a crazy thing to do. And it’ll be an amazing shared goal and shared experience with my daughter. Honestly, I’m less concerned about her than I am about me. She’s a dolphin in the water. Me on the other hand? Well, think doggy-paddle.
