Hello dear NextTriber!
Welcome to our Swimsuit Issue—more tasteful and more inclusive than that hideously sexist thing Sports Illustrated puts out every year.
Jeannie Ralston has been lying low and nesting—happily. She says the only photo she would have to share this week is of her Q-Less game results. Whooppie!
Jeannie Edmunds arrived in Tokyo this week and she’s already fallen in love with the city.
“My cousin has lived here more than 30 years, and he’s married to an adorable Japanese woman, Misa. They’ve shown me some of their favorite places, and I’ve invited Misa to join us for dinner tomorrow, the first night of our trip. It’s always so nice to learn about the lives of women who live in the countries we visit.”

Look What Jeannie Ralston Loves!
Speaking of bathing suits, Jeannie Ralston says, “It’s hard to make a swim dress sexy, but Lands End offers this ruched style that looks like something a Greek goddess would wear. Lovely, flattering lines with plenty of movement so you don’t feel too exposed.”
