Don is 60
This morning we celebrated Don's 60th birthday at the 25K...ironically, I had to be up at 5:30 (really 6:30) to get my son organized for a hike, on no sleep (took by mistake a caffeinated sports drink that left me staring at the ceiling til 2:20 and finally had to take an advil P.M.)...so I could have gotton to the race early --the guest of honor, however, slept late!! He forgot to change his clock one hour forward in typical Don fashion (or maybe he wanted to sleep in for his birthday). We all lined up and looked around for Don --no Don. Jim was going to lead us in singing 'happy birthday'.
We even stalled by taking a group photo of the tech shirt winners. Did Don drive to Celebrate Life 1/2, we wondered? As it turns out, he started the race 10 minutes late.
So we waited for him at the end and took some photos of the poster that I made him.
