I took a personal day at work today so that I could go to Andy's "Holiday" program at school. Based on the songs they sang I would say that holiday is Christmas. Of course with all kindergarten programs it was off the scale on the cuteness meter.

Still left me with plenty of time to get in a noon run at Liberty Park. My legs appreciated the soft path. 13.25 miles averaging 7:20 pace. Perfect sunny day.

Did you actually say "cuteness meter"? Is Ann updating your blog for you today?

BTW, winterizing the RV and found a headlamp under a seat. LL Bean. Is that yours?

It was pretty damn cute.

There. I made up for it my cussing.

Yes, that would be mine.
