Melloween

One of the things we miss most about Knoxville is Mellow Mushroom pizza. Try as we might, we can't find a pie that compares. I think part of it might be that we can't find a crowd of regulars who we like as well in Maryland! Sadly, I didn't get a shot of Andy Key's award winning costume. His take on Phil Fulmer was priceless!
Ella takes second place in the Mellow Mushroom costume contest. And she doesn't even need teeth to enjoy her gift card!!

Tiffany is an East Tennessee Pirate, while Daniel plays it cool as a bar fly.

Popeye and Olive Oyl -- Brendon Wright and Amanda Burkey dress like an engaged couple! Congratulations to the happy couple.

He's not a bar fly, he's a singer!

The trivia machine is no match for Cory as Wyatt Earp.

Keith fought the law and the law won!

That's me, dressed as a grandmother. Don't you love my granddaughter!

Ella is the most popular girl in the bar!

All the boys love her! And the girls too!!

Scenes from Shawn's Three-Hour Tour

I'm in Seattle for a conference, and Shawn tagged along for a long weekend away from home. While I was in meetings, he took a lock tour and cruised the waters around Seattle. This is some of what he saw...

Dino Dash






Thanks to Suzi for sending this pictures of Fred's and Milty's first fun run.

Suzi and Lorenda both ran in the 5K for adult runners; Lorenda ran with Milty for the kid's mile, while Mitch accompanied Freddie. Race day was actually October 1; the race course was on the campus of Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI.

It looks like everyone had a great time. Too bad we missed it!
