And We're Back!

No excuses, right, but the internet was down for over a week.  Too much happened over that time, so we won't rehash.  If you really want to know the missing details, just call.

But, I did participate in my first marathon.  Over the past month or so, we have been logging miles as part of the St Jude Marathon's Family Race.  On race day, we just did one mile.

The last leg of the race led us through the center field wall at AutoZone Park (home of the Memphis Redbirds, the AAA affiliate of the StL Cardinals).  I rode in the stroller until we arrived at the stadium, at which point I had to get out and push the stroller myself.  Once inside the stadium, the family course led us around the left field warning track, through the finish line, and then down the third base foul territory.


I forgot about the stroller as we crossed the finish line, as I was distracted by Rocky the Redbird.  He was so cool that I just ran and jumped up into his arms.

Take a look:







I really liked the big numbers on the wall in left field, too:
