\t\t\t\t\t\t Sweet day.. Diane woke early to head down to Endicott for our friend Linda’s surprise 50th.. I was down there on Monday and went buy and took Linda flowers which was a sneaky way of getting here to think that Diane wouldn’t be coming down for her birthday.. Ha !<\/p>\n

Gabe and I had to be up at smuggs by 8 for a USASA slope style competition.> the two of us are a pretty funny pair in the morning . Neither of us are what you might call ‘morning people’. It’s mostly grunts\u00a0 and mumbles from both us until we get in the car,,, <\/p>\n

We got up there in time.. We registered gabe.. then I took a walk partway up the gap road.. it was really beautiful in the filtered sun. <\/p>\n

I got back in time for the start of the competition.. Gabe had a great first run.. .and a
sketchy 2nd run. The first run clinched the day for him.. He came in 1st place !<\/p>\n

Before the awards, Paige, the organizer told us about the “Molly Rail Jam” on 3.6th. It’s a fund raiser for a memorial fund set up after 5 year old Molly Rowlee died of cancer in
june 2009. The molly fund<\/a> helps families who have kids fighting cancer.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I felt the story deeply in my heart as Paige told us about Molly…\u00a0\u00a0 I guess that’s the
way it will always be…. <\/p>\n

The awards ceremony was over by 2:30.. Gabe took off with Dylan and Family.. I drove Garrett back to the park and ride in Richmond to meet his mom.. then I went home… meditated, then I went for a run with the dogs..<\/p>\n

One catch was that my running shoes were packed in my suitcase, and I didn’t want to get them wet.\u00a0 The only answer I came up with was to run in my old dress shoes.. I got new shoes on\u00a0 Thursday.. so I thought.. what the heck… \u00a0 I looked dorky (or more dorky than usual).. but they sure were comfy in the snow !<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

About 4;30 I left home for the airport. I’m on my way to Las Vegas.. for a meeting..
but more n that tomorrow… for now. <\/p>\n

Gnite all, gnite Sam
