Ready.....

Kicked off my extended Marathon weekend by going to hear Dick Beardsley speak last evening. What a dynamic, inspirational & downright friendly guy!

Me & my new buddy Dick

I didn't even mind being sleep deprived having to go to work a nightshift after this! Here is a link to my son & his friend being interviewed afterwards:
