Labor day, a nice punctuation to a great summer! Celebrated 11 year old Carson's birthday with friends on the East River in Mathews, VA--- lots of fish and crabs caught; and a Sunday smorgasbord of sprimp, clams, crabs, croaker and trout!!! Wow, it was fantastic!
Today I began real physical preparations for my trip to Ghana, which begins on Sept. 18, 3:55pm. The past two Fridays I have made trips to the MCV Travel clinic for shots--- yellow fever, typhoid, Hepatitis A, and Polio; still need Tetanus and meds for malaria and stomach ills (praying I don't get anything like that). So, there are some clothes in the suitcase, I'll be treating my clothes with a mosquito repellent, and have 100% deet with me. Lots of aids to stay as cool as possible, and of course, all my running gear and supplies--- man, I hope I don't forget anything!
Running this past week was pretty pleasant, the weather has really been very nice for running. Saturday morning was actually a cool day for a 7 mile run. Breaking in new sneaks will be a good thing. All in all, not so much to talk about, just an awful lot to get done on a daily basis. Just 11 days to go til I leave, 20 days to the marathon!
