Glenn,

You know that you can't weasel out of every run I put together.

One day you're just gonna have to bite the bullet and come on out.

BTW, today I kinda pieced together a route we could do for the next breakfast at MoT if we're in need of somewhere to go.

On the bright side, now that I can't make it....undoubtedly, the weather will clear up for you all.

Sorry for missing this run as well Bill.

After read your post, I checked the weather forecast again, and ... wow.


Partly Cloudy

High 47°F

Precip 10%

Wind:NW 6 mph


Rain and snow is now gone from the Sunday forecast.

j/k

Man, I wish you and Bev could made this run.

You have to give me points for creativity. While Bev was trying to figure out which airport to fly out of, I was nudging her to catch a flight out of BWI Sunday morning...say around 9am.

My scheming didn't work, though, and she chose to fly out of National. Hhmph!

Spitfire,

Since the weather is getting better and better, do we tempt fate and ask MrMellowYellow to come back ?

Also, did you wash Wensley or go flying ?

With the weeks forecast rain and Wensley's somewhat clean condition, I went flying and today I have the makings of a wonderful cold Yippee !

As for Bev and Glenn, No way ! We've got our hopes up now ! Hah !

Hmmmm. Maybe I should use my special snow attracting powers to my advantage.

You each have to pay me $0.25 cents....NO! Make that $0.35 cents or I'll show up and ruin the run! Bwahahahahaa.

I may try for this. 75 miles from my place to the start but I'd REALLY like to do a run. Doubt I'll be up for 200+ miles if it's ugly but if nice I'll try...
