Another wonderful weekend

Did you have a great weekend? We did!

I kicked it off Friday afternoon with a sunny run with Connie. Unfortunately, I forgot my sunglasses at home and was forced to squint through 5 miles - and this photo:
Brad and I decided at the last minute to head to Ma and Pa's beach house for a couple days of R&R. 

We stopped on the way for some grub: $2 smoothies from Jamba Juice (coupons!!) and $5 footlongs from Subway. Oh, and we used a Jamba gift card, so dinner was $10! We love a yummy deal :)
Just two things were on the weekend agenda: reading and a long run on the Bayocean spit, which runs between the ocean and Tillamook Bay. We ran out to the bar and back, then did another short out-and-back to finish off 11 miles.
It was gorgeous - absolutely gorgeous. Running in shorts and t-shirts, we kept saying we couldn't believe it was January. Sunny, warm, no wind.

We ran a lot faster than we planned, and I finished at a 9:21 pace. Feeling good about next month's race!

Awww...
I finished one book and then started another. We read and read and read - 400+ pages done! Man, that's a good weekend :)

On the way home, we stopped by Tillamook's new Pelican Pub for burger/veggie burger dinner. EXCELLENT fries!
This week marks the start of a new semester at THS. It's a stressful week. I'm so glad we got a little respite.

Oh, yes :)
