Who has two thumbs and is taking the day off today? >>>> THIS GUY <<<<
The kids are off to school, and Vonnie and I are off to the Renaissance Festival in Shakopee, MN for the day. It’ll be a fun day of shows, comedy and eating. Although I *need* to be relatively mindful of my eating as I am trying to keep the right kinds of fuel in me with my marathon just over a week away.
Speaking of the marathon, I’m mentally preparing for it each and every day. I’m anxious. I’m excited. I can’t wait. Did I mention it was just over a week away? Fist pump!

Enjoy the day off and weekend Travis! Thanks for the mention! A great week for us for sure.
Great day spent with my wife…..got FREE tickets and everything! Thanks for stopping by, and congrats again!
Thanks for the first pump, Travis! I appreciate it! What marathon are you running in a week? The Renaissance Festival in LA is held in the Spring and people go all out on their costumes. It’s really quite amazing. Enjoy your day off!
You’re welcome, Shannon…I’m running the Twin Cities Marathon (Starts in Minneapolis, ends in St Paul). Can’t wait!
Super excited for you and the TC Marathon, Travis!!! Ren Fest sounds fun too. 🙂 We are spending Saturday at the apple orchard – gotta love this weather. Have a great one!
Had a great time at the Ren Fest, Laurie, especially since we got FREE tickets. 🙂 I’m not much for shopping, and the food is “meh” at best, but I love the shows! I just wish they still had the big cat show (panthers, siberian tigers, etc)…but I guess it was a bit risky….
Did you get a turkey drumstick?
I didn’t! I wanted one…..but then I found a Ghost Pepper burger (which wasn’t very good) that filled me up. Should have stuck with the turkey drumstick. 🙂
Thank you for including me Travis! I appreciate the support.
Always very welcome, Grayson, thanks for stopping by!
