I didn't know Rachael lives in Colorado. I wonder if I saw ....?????? Great, now I am going to have a "home team" bias.
Being from Del Mar, she's kind of a "local girl" here, too, which I did not know.
I don't know; there's nothing wrong with having this much young talent, but I kind of miss the days when there were only 1 or 2 "Rising Star/Next Big Thing"s per season -- what are we up to now this year, about 319?? And I don't mean to inject a note of pessimism here -- just realism -- when I ask, and how many of these young ladies are still going to be competing in 4 years??
Well she sounds like she is loyal to Del Mar. Give her some time, she'll get Chief Niwot's curse and fall for Colorado. If I win the Lotto and put up the 5 rink Ice Skating community in the mountains like I want to, they'll all have a place to come and train for free!
No Doubt, it is so hard to keep track, have favorites and such. The mind spins with all the youngsters that have bright futures as well as SO MANY I love to see skate.
Abbott has posted here I believe for I remember giving out a cheer his way. But I still have not see "them" skate. I 'spose I should be more diligent and go look on YouTube.:agree:
