Father's Day, Racing, and a Piano

I learned something new today. If you're not that fast of a runner, but still want to win an award (in this case a plaque), participate in a race scheduled on a holiday. Not many people in your age group will show up and the odds are in your favor. I finished about 3.2 miles in 27:35 and came in 1st in my age group (Men 25-29)... out of four people.

After the race, I still had plenty of time to get home and meet the piano movers before Father's Day. Yep... Shelley got a new Hamilton H370 (by Baldwin) piano for her birthday. The movers were right on time. The rest of the day was spent cooking up assorted livestock and poultry parts over two charcoal grills. Mmmmm. BBQ! Nom Nom Nom.
