Second 1st Day of School

Our oldest got to have an extra day of summer vacation, but alas, he had to start school today.

First 1st Day of School

Some of the kiddos started school today...

My Runners

This afternoon we went for a run at the Cornwall Nature Preserve.  It's located on Paris Hill in South Paris.  They have well-maintained trails that require a runners full attention so that you don't trip over a root or a rock.  Tricky footing makes the miles fly by... 

BBQ Chicken Pizza

This is his very favorite pizza, so when he asked for it for supper tonight, I decided to teach him how to make it himself.  It was really tasty!

Camo Boy

Camo Boy (a Golden Polish cockerel) always seems to enjoy his time with the kiddos!

There's the Beacon...

The finish line for the race was at Portland Headlight, one of the most beautiful spots in Maine!

TD Beach to Beacon 10K

Today my son made me extremely proud - he competed (Along with about 7,000 other runners!) in the TD Beach to Beacon 10K road race.  He wasn't as prepared as he thought he was, so he ended up walking part of the course.  He's already planning on running the whole thing next year...
