I’m tight with the Cornelia Marie now…
Oh my goodness — the coolest thing happened to me this morning! Most of you know that I’m a huge fan of the television show “The Deadliest Catch.” It’s the only show that Jeff and I clear our schedules for, and we (ok, mostly me) have gotten very attached to a few of the captains and their crews, including Phil Harris of the Cornelia Marie.

Earlier this week I blogged about all the changes in my life, not the least of which is the impending season finale of “The Deadliest Catch” and the lingering questions about Captain Phil Harris’ health. And, here’s where it gets really exciting: Morgan Howard, son of Cornelia Marie Collins, the primary owner of Phil’s boat, commented on my blog entry! I am a smidge excited; just ask my co-workers or my husband!
Isn’t the blog world crazy? I get to write about things/people that I love, and, sometimes, I even make an unexpected connection with a stranger. Love that.
I’m convinced that today will be far better than yesterday. Besides the blog excitement, my favorite Amandas are meeting me for lunch and it’s the last night of VBS! My VBS kids have been so much fun, and I love seeing the Patton girls every night.
One more thing would add to the fabulous-ness of this day: Sig…Edgar…Johnathan…are you out there?! I would love to hear from you too!
Today I’m going to blog about Garmin-Chipotle and Team Columbia Cycling. Maybe George Hincapie will comment on my blog

But, I’m sure he’ll write back. After all, we are pretty big Hincapie fans!
July 18th, 2008 at 9:14 amOMG! Lucky you! I absolutely love the show.
I love Phil and the Cornelia Marie. tho, I must admit I’m a Time Bandit fan.
Phil is in my prayers and I hope we see him next season, doing what he does best.
It’s so great to see other fans that blog. I just recently started my blog. Never thought I’d find a bunch of Deadliest Catch fans, but so glad I have.
