Weekend Tidbits

What an awesome weekend! The weather was beautiful, and we took complete advantage of it.

M’s son graduated from his training program on Friday – hats off to him!

Saturday, M and I took K and the three kayaks to the Missouri River where we floated for 6 hours (about 22 miles). It was absolutely perfect! Beautiful weather, great company – very hard to beat. A bit of a wind and a little sunburn for each of us, but no serious complaints at all. The only question is when can we do it again?

Yesterday we recovered, did some yard work, and took a 6 mile run, in preparation for Louisville and the Kentucky Derby Mini-Marathon on Saturday. I also baked pound cake and banana bread and made dinner. Must be a springtime energy surge.
