Bristol's Independence Half Marathon (Rhode Island)

Independence Day Half Marathon - Bristol, Rhode Island

State #37

I was fortunate to start 1 hour before everyone else. Being a slow, fat runner sometimes works in my advantage. I was able to “beat” Eric to the finished line.

The course was hiller than I expected, especially after mile 8…last 5 miles were brutal.

The rain held off and it didn’t get too hot, but it was very, very humid.

Bristol is a fun town with red, white and blue lines down the middle of the streets. And all the house were decked out for the 4th of July! A very cool experience!

Twins games with family

Some of the family came up to watch the Twins get destroyed by the Texas Rangers on Tuesday for Prince Night. The final score was 16-4. Ouch.

Yesterday I went to see the Twins get destroyed by the Texas Rangers, again with a score 16-3. This time it was my work. But Michael and Tori were also there. Eventually they came to my section to hang out. 

Finn & Reba Update

Finn and Reba are adorable as usually.  I asked ChatGPT to make Reba a Pope so that was fun.  Finn fell asleep on my keyboard while I was working.  Reba was naughty and jumped into the cat food cupboard. 

Trombone Girl Power

We had 9 trombones at the chilly Lake Harriet concert. The three of us played trombone 2.
