Highlights:

  • Long weekend with Shannon; no child or dog related responsibilities
  • Dropping the half marathoners and enjoying the back half of the race along the San Antonio River
  • Can now legitimately tell Shannon to remember the Alamo

Low-lights:

  • Saw Pearl Jam on 10/18 in Brooklyn, our seats for the 11/15 show in Dallas were slightly further away
  • The humidity for the first four miles and the sun and heat for the last three miles
  • Toured the Texas School Book Depository, stood on the Grassy Knoll and spent a half hour in Dealey Plaza; was unable to conclusively resolve the JFK assassination mystery

Thanks:

  • To Marge and Bill for staying at our house and taking care of Luke, Dylan and Eli
  • To Shannon for allowing me to plan a vacation that included a Pearl Jam concert and a college football game on top of a marathon; the precedent has been set
  • All the volunteers who sprayed me with cold water or handed me an ice cold sponge along the course
