Rundy Hamblen, age 80+, in her Jet ski on the Chesapeake . .

This is definitely the kind of photo I want to have in my obituary — assuming it’s publishable in a family newspaper (assuming, I guess that there still are newspapers, too).

From the Post’s obituary at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/03/01/AR2008030101706_2.html

With her oxygen tubes coiled around the handlebars, she skimmed over choppy waters, throttle wide open.

Bless Rundy Hamblen. . . .
