A cold walk in the park

But for a good cause, for sure. Rod, Victoria and I, along with Grandma Penny, her friend Maria, Jaja and Busha, participated in the March of Dimes Walk for Babies this morning. In sharp contrast to the 70 and 80 degree weather we enjoyed for the past week, this morning was 47 degrees, and the wind was blowing hard! Despite the less than ideal weather conditions, we trudged on... the first two miles with the wind, the second half coming back straight into the wind.

But it was for a more-than-worthy cause, and together our team raised over $2,400!!! What an amazing feeling.

Sorry for the nasty weather! Last year, it *snowed* the morning of the walk (May 5th) so Cris went without Katie and I. I'm hoping that since it's in June this year we'll have better weather!

Congrats on raising so much money!!
