il Nostro Anniversario & a Race T-shirt Quilt
Eight years ago today was a beautiful and unseasonably warm day in Casoli, Italy where Laura and I were married in her grandparent’s hometown village with 27 friends and famiglia in tow. Today, we celebrated, just the two of us, at a local Indian restaurant. Laura had a quilt made for me - using t-shirts from my favorite races including Badwater, Smoky Mountain Marathon and various Ironmans. Here’s a photo Laura took of me under the quilt and our cat on top of it. (A shout out to runner Jackie Kelly of Tennessee for her amazing work on the quilt. Nobody makes better t-shirt quilts than Jackie.) Mojave never slept on the couch when other blankets were there but he does now – he loves this quilt for some reason.
