Surf and Snow

By John Walters on Friday, March 19, 2004.

As the first day of Spring arrives we look back at the winter and forward to warmer days.

Sue Johnston is an avid hiker and ultra marathoner who lives in Waterford, VT. She and her hiking partner, Robert Williams, made news this winter when they hiked all of New Hampshire's 48 4000-footers in 10 days, 22 hours, and 37 minutes.

Malia Mills says there is no need to get in shape for "bikini season." She is a highly acclaimed New York swimsuit designer who creates bikinis for women of all shapes and sizes. Though she advocates a healthy lifestyle, Malia strongly feels that women are beautiful just as they are. She talks about the responses she gets to the diverse models on her website, she tells us about her favorite bikini, and recalls her years spent as a teen in Hanover, NH.
