We are going to do Dark Side next year! How was the weather for the races? That's one thing I am concerned about doing a race in April in FL. And next year it's a week later. Congrats on finishing by the way!
.

Sorry - I missed replying to this earlier! In general the weather was not bad. The days of the 5K and 10K were pretty humid but with the races being so early in the day there wasn't any big effect from that. I believe the temp was in the low 60's at the start. And the fastest runners were done before the sun rose. I think for the half if it had been that muggy it would have started to get a little miserable for the later corrals as the sun got higher and things warmed up. My niece did say she saw a lot of long shirts being shed during the 10k

Happy Birthday DiznyDi!!!!

Happy Birthday Dizny Di !!!

[tea pot]

Oops !! sorry another belated greeting
Happy Birthday Luvvw !!!
Hope it was filled with Fun and Pixie Dust

 

[DiznyDi]

Thank you all so much for your birthday greetings! DDad and I enjoyed a relaxing afternoon and were joined by our kids for our evening meal. We have their puppy while they take a vacation day for some much needed down-time. Their puppy is about 50 pounds and full of vinegar - really keeps us on our toes. So much different than our 14 yr old senior dog. All in all - a great day!

Granny- we'll be there in 4 days! Enjoy your week!

Thank you again for your birthday wishes!

We haven't been on WL/VWL property yet, but here's a picture from the monorail taken today:




Not a great picture of any progress, but it does show how close to the monorail and World Drive the cabins will come.

OK . . . . I got the look already at 7:20 this morning . . . . when I told a cohort that I could not participate in his conference call this Thursday, 'cause I was GOING TO DISNEY WORLD! . . . yup, you guessed it . . .I got the usual "Again? Aren't you tired of that place" comment from this non-Disney guy . . . . (and this guy goes golfing every May in Myrtle Beach to the same place every year with the same guys) . . . . . . . some just don't understand . . . . or just refuse to . . .
(Three sleeps for me; one for DiznyDi!)

I get this everytime also! Some people don't get it, never will. Others just can't afford it, so it's their way of trying to make you look stupid ( of course it only makes them look jealous IMHO)

 

[jimmytammy]

Golfing in MB or WDWThats a no brainer for me. Tell him they have some very nice golf courses in WDW Dad. Though I have never played them because I am too busy having fun with my family

 

[twinklebug]

That's so funny DiznyDad, we used to get asked the same question about going to MB every year. My parents sold their beautiful waterfront Myrtle Beach condo, which had a nature reserve on one side, and a campground on the other (the same campground I grew up going to every spring with them) and replaced it with a home just outside Disney in Clermont. (MB got too crowded and boring so they replaced it with a crowded, not boring location) There's an educational process going on... seems your co-worker is half way to his degree.

It's snowing here in Reno this morning and I'm wishing for some FL warmth and sun! But it all kind if fits the day as I took my heart dog in this morning to have a tumor removed that I found on his chest a few weeks ago. So I spend the day hoping all goes well under the anesthesia and then that it isn't cancerous.

I'm with you in thought, you hoping it all turns out well.
