I found a new race. It is in Issaquah for Salmon Days. I don't know why they don't advertise this more. I had to go look for it. It should set me up well for the Seattle Marathon's half marathon. No 26 miles yet. I think that 13 is enough.

I'm driving the truck again. Gary, my crew lead, got himself fired for stomping off the job last Friday. No word yet on exactly what my status is concerning work and pay. The rain has returned to Seattle. It is kind of spotty now. The weekend is supposed to be really nice. I hear that good weather has once again graced New England. It has been hot, muggy and wet at home all summer. Y'all better enjoy it before it gets snot-freezing cold though. Thank god there are espresso stands, Tully's and Starbucks everywhere here. There is nothing like a cold rain to drive you to some hot espresso. Kabuba and Judy are due here October 10th or thereabouts and it is sure to be colder and wetter then. It should be fun. Maybe when Kabuba gets more minutes on his cell phone he'll call. I'll call him on the weekend when mine are nearly limitless.
