I had to go to Excelsior Springs, Mo today. Left at 5:30 am. To get there I had to take some state and county roads due to a detour. Helped with a telethon for Catholic Radio – plugged Vitae’s KC Event coming up and the organization in general. I love driving this time of year.
The State Highway was a bit deserted. By the way, here’s my VW Bug – I love it!
I didn’t run today – but did yesterday – 3 miles. Will run tomorrow, Fri and Saturday. This is taper down period. Thank goodness – have lots of things waiting for me to do at home.

There is a famous Civil War battle that was fought in Lexington, Mo. Here is the battlefield.
