And We're Off. . .

This is a short week and trying to get everything in is tough.

Yesterday was a quick business trip to Boston and back. Today is my only day in the office. Deb and I leave early tomorrow for New Orleans for the weekend.

So far, I've been able to get a couple of runs in. 6 at home on Monday and 9 at the gym before work this morning. Looking forward to a 12 mile long run on Saturday through the French Quarter. Hope I'll be able to run right past those 2 for 1 beer signs on Bourbon Street!

What else will we do there? Eat. I don't think there is a bad restaurant in the city. There are a few that we're gonna try out from previous visits. We'll have to be careful not to let it all get away from us, but we'll be sure to have lots of fun, regardless. Looking forward to getting to a jazz club while we're there.

We come back Monday, just in time for opening day at the Orioles. It's an annual tradition that I go with my dad and brother. The way the O's have been playing the last few years, we also look forward to being tied for first place at least until the game is over.

Counting down to flight time. Have a great weekend, all. Full report next week.

L'Chaim!
