Ceecee got first place in her age group in the Firecracker 5000, an Independence Day 5K in Branson this morning. She never expected it, but I was sure proud of her.
I had hoped that I might have placed for my age group, but no such luck. Even so, I ran a good race and it was a pretty neat course, going along the shore of Lake Taneycomo during the last mile.
We won a couple of ridiculous door prizes, too. Ceecee won a huge box of fireworks, which we gave to our son-in-law’s family, and I won a quilt with an Americana theme. It was funny, though. On the way back home, we decided to stop and eat a picnic lunch and we used that quilt as out picnic blanket.
