Spent the weekend in D.C. On Sunday Ben did his first marathon - The Maring Corps Marathon. Amanda and I were the cheering squad/support crew. It was an impressive operation. (Imagine what you can do with 30,000 entries each paying $100. You do the math. And hundreds of "volunteers" from the Marine Corps to handle spectator control and water and food stations and other logistics.) Because of the looping we were able to spectate at 4 spots and the finish. Amanda made 2 signs and I brought Grandpa's old sheep bell. The last hill before the finish at the Iwo Jima Memorial was a killer. Ben finished in 3:27.

A nice little jog around the cemetery. Warmish and breezy before the cold front passes through.
