Happy July Fourth
"For what avail the plough or sail, or land or life, if freedom fail?" -Ralph Waldo Emerson
A very happy fourth of July to my fellow Americans.

Running For Fun
Look for my wife and I this Friday - July 4th - during the 39th running of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race. We will be wearing t-shirts promoting the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. That is if you can find us among the 55,000 plus runners.
The Peachtree has remained the world’s largest 10K since the late 1970s until 2008. It takes approximately 3,200 volunteers to handle the race and the 55,000 runners will burn 34 million calories running the 6.2 mile course.
So maybe you won't see us this year, but think about joining the fun next year. Check it out online, enjoy pushing your self just a little bit further. And there have been 80+ year old men and women walk, jog, run in this event. So I'm sure you can make it along with everyone else.
Have an enjoyable 4th of July and remember those serving over seas and their loved ones. Cheers everyone!!
