Saturday

5K Gala

We’ve got a busy Saturday ahead of us, starting with a 5K this morning and the MV auction tonight. Up and at it!

We ended our busy Saturday with the MVCDS annual gala. It’s always a wonderful event and this year did not disappoint. The venue – a converted horse stable – was beautiful, and we had a chance to catch up with some old friends. Fewer people from our era seem to be attending these days. I think next year we’ll try to rally the troops beforehand to help with that. Great night for a great cause.

Renee and I walked the Glass City 5K this morning! It was cold and drizzled a bit here and there, but it was great. We left the house at abut 6:45 in the morning, and started the 5k at about 8:30. A nice walk indeed!

I haven’t seen this view of the Glass Bowl since I played high school football, and I don’t think the press box looked like that back then.

What do you do after finishing a 5K? Have a couple beers, of course. And pizza. At 10 in the morning.
