Temple Square

Salt Lake City is home to the LDS church and here is it's downtown temple.

I hear it's a wedding factory: when I took this picture there were no less than three women in wedding dresses down below. No idea if this couple were married here...

I was on the lookout, but no sightings of the Morman pope though when I was there. I think I ran near the the spot where that abducted Smart girl lived though...

Arches National Park

Moab, Utah is home to Arches National Park. Guess what were the highlights of the trip; yup, you guessed it.

Here are a couple of my arch pictures.

Chicago Sky

Who's better looking - me or this WNBA mascot?

2:09:51

Update: My Sunburst time was 2:09:51

It was a cool finish - we ran down the ND tunnel and onto the field for the finish.

Sunburst Half-Marathon

I ran the Sunburst Half-Maraton in South Bend yesterday. This fits in two weeks before my real race, Grandma's Marathon, in Duluth. This 13.1 mile course was pretty fast, although it was a little hot. I came in around 2 hours, 10 minutes. The official time and pictures will be here soon. I'll keep you posted...

The Grand Hotel

As you probably all know, I'm in hotels all the time. And I always get the berries at least once a week when staying for a week. Here were the best hotel berries in Minneapolis.

Good news though, I will likely be able to spend most of my summer in Chicago. King Tut is in town, and I still need to figure out where to get my drivers license updated.

Mount Vernon

After the wedding, I wandered up to Mount Vernon to see the original George's house. It wasn't very impressive, I though the second most touristed house in America was better. Old George really was into this house though, according to 1776, this is all he wrote home about.

Steve & Neda

Sarah and I went to Washington DC to see MBA classmate Steve marry Neda. They had a great wedding and reception; I'm no Catholic, but I think the Pope married them. Even after travelling for 8 months, I still don't have enough points for a night at the St. Regis - where they had their reception.

Did you know Washington DC is a great place to run? There's tons of stuff to see, and I even caught old George (H.W.) in the Mall deliving a graduation address for George Mason.
