See Spot Run...*People Notes*

I don't know why we run. Nobody is chasing us. We are not running away from or toward anything. But Odie is a good little trooper and is also a good 'pace dog' so I guess we will keep running until it doesn't seem like such a good idea anymore.

The past weeks have been busy as always. Jeannie flew to Huntsville, Alabama to spend a week with two of the grandsons while David worked crazy hours and Jennifer took the opportunity to spend some time with her parents in Texas. Odie was mad that he didn't get to go on the airplane and didn't get to visit his favorite 'little people', but he will see them soon enough. We made pizza and enchiladas, baked cupcakes and cookies, played games and watched movies! All in all it was a fantastic week and I swear I don't know anything about cupcakes for breakfast...

Chris came out to spend a couple of weeks with us and to explore Florida. We managed to spend several days at the beach, went canoeing and snorkeling at Rainbow Springs (in spite of the alligator warning signs!), scootered around town, rode every rollercoaster at Busch Gardens (more than once), and ate and ate and ate! Seafood and Greek food and BBQ and gulf shrimp and conch fritters and smoked salmon and beach lemonade and hot fudge brownie sundaes...and then we ate some more. What a fun time - it's always nice to have a Chris visit.

Then Jeannie was treated to a weekend in New York City thanks to Erik & Katy who brought her to the Big Apple for mother's day weekend. We ate and ate and ate - JG Melons, Agave, Alice's and Graces. And then we ate some more. And played frisbee. And walked around and then ate and ate some more. And of course went to the Banshee Pub. What a fantastic weekend - thanks so much!!

The eating seems to be a recurring theme...perhaps that explains the running thing!!
