Every so often, I love to celebrate a member of our community who is doing extraordinary work. I love that people come into the studio and work out HARD!

Chandra is a film maker and Don is….well, you’ll have to ask him…..something with finance and whatnot. But what amazes me is what they do in their off hours. I consider myself an athlete– not brilliant but I can hold my own. But these two have wandered into sports I can’t even fathom: horseback riding and surfing!
