It’s a little cool here in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. I’m sure it’s similar to the weather back home but the mood here at 1600 is definitely different than Hollis, NH.  I missed body by Scotty this am with Jay so took to the streets!

I told my Mom I’d go to church with her and my Dad this am so as not to lose out on an early morning workout and keep true to my word, I dressed in my running clothes on this misty dreary day and got in the car @ 7 with them to head to st. Vincent’s on the south side. As a kid I would never have run from there back home. Made Mom clock it to see how far it was. Imagine that…only 2.4 miles! I was home in no time. Took me about 24 mins…..and I didn’t melt. Dad was sure I’d change my mind if it started raining harder. It was a great feeling to run past all the long forgotten familiar sites.

I respect the military families who may be giving their children a very different childhood memory than the one i have of living in the same house for so many years.  However, i am sure the flexibility from moving around will serve them well in the years ahead.

Here’s to happy times as a kid no matter where you grew up!
