Tens of thousands participating today under warm sunny skies. It's really great to see so many people enjoying themselves. Since these runs are in our front yard, we have tended to be a little annoyed about being captive by the road closures, the music and cheering when we just want to read our paper in peace and quiet. But, heh, it's not asking too much to share our paradise.
And we have it all figured out. We both have our noise cancelling head phones on. I'm listening to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, drinking coffee, and reading my paper in peace. We even moved the car last night so we can escape before Beach Avenue is opened up again.
