Skatter Day

Our Saturday was quite the Scattered Day Saturday as we were all over the place.

I had signed up for a virtual 5K to benefit our local ODC (Opportunity Development Center) and decided to do it this morning since I had to drop off a book at my friend's house, which is about a mile and a half away.

The best thing about a virtual 5K? It's not timed so you can enjoy a coffee station pit stop versus a water station at the halfway point. 

Great having morning sips and chit-chat. And I'll still get a race t-shirt, of course. #winning

This afternoon we helped our good friend Christine celebrate her upcoming 50th birthday. Headed down to their family saloon in Adams County and got to see family and friends we haven't seen much of (or any of) during the pandemic!

And naturally nice to see the birthday girl, who lives far far away down by the Kenosha-Racine area.

After that it was one more event. Yup, summer's almost over so we gotta squeeze lots in each day.

We went up in Marshfield to watch our nephew Colin race. Kind of exciting he got fast time in qualifying so I got some pictures before it got dark. And cold. Yup. Jeans and sweatshirt weather already. 

They had a 60-lap main feature that literally started around my bedtime – after 9:30 p.m.! After plenty of cautions (thankfully not our boy), the race wrapped up after 11 p.m., with Colin crossing the finish line for a hard-fought 5th place. Nice work, kiddo. 

Home as the clock strikes 12. Guess who's gonna sleep good after this crazy Scatter Day!? That and current temp of 55. Night!
