Mark is home for a whole week!
We got in from the airport around 10:30 last night. Jesse, who has a training run this morning, had gone to bed, but Owen was up, ready to share peach cobbler with his dad. Thanks to Grandma Sylvia for the Shawnee Springs peaches, and thanks to Paula Deen for the cobbler recipe. It was, in fact, The Best Cobbler Ever.
It made Owen's face do this:
This morning, Mark and Jesse got up and headed into Ashland in the Little Red Truck for Jesse's run. This weekend is 12 miles, next weekend 20, etc., until Jesse's Marathon Day, September 18th. Please come cheer! More info -- time (early!), location (near train station/RMC parking lot) to come. Or email me.
Here's Jesse beginning his 22 mile training run last weekend:
It gets hotter, and he loses the shirt. Running along the tracks in Ashland. (Ashland, Center of the Universe. A train runs straight through it.) That is pretty Randolph Macon College campus on the right.
And, finally, My Foot In Ashland. Take the train -- I'll meet you at the station!!
Hmm. Can I get a pedicure in Ashland? My foot is waving at the people on the train:
"Hi, people -- cheer for my running son!"

I'm glad you get to have your hubby home! Kudos to Jesse, I can't imagine running a marathon, such dedication :)
Wow, that cobbler looks scrummy!
So wish I could be there to cheer Jesse on. Am so impressed that he has decided to do the run - in the heat and all that training on his own. Sigh! So impressive.
Have a wonderful week with Mark.

Okay, I'm adding peaches to my farmers mkt list. Enjoy! Enjoy!
All this talk of Paula Deen's cobbler is making me hungry--where's my cobbler?! Enjoy having your man home--and yaay, Jesse!!
I wish I had cobbler... I'd be eating it for breakfast right now!
