I’ve added another running adventure to the movies page — it’s the Lake Geneva Marathon, which I ran on Saturday, May 13. Enjoy!

Special Delivery
Congratulations to our friends Steve and Mary on the birth of their first child. It’s a boy! David Matthew was born at 6:40 p.m. on Thursday, November 2, weighing in at 7 pounds, 13.8 ounces, and measuring just over 20 inches. Let the record show that he is an especially beautiful baby.
Trick or Treat!
Here’s some photos of an amazing Halloween display, put up every year by Uncle Nick and his family. I’ll have to check with him to see how many visitors he got this year.
In our neighborhood, trick-or-treating was from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. We turned off our porch light at 5:45 because we ran out of candy (and and fruit snacks). We had over 100 visitors! It was fun to see lots of kids in costume, including Jack the lion.

More Marathon Stuff
Two new things to share:
- A new movie from the Houston Marathon. You’ll find it on the movies page (surprising, I know).
- I posted some statistics from the Portland Marathon on the running log.
As always, more fun content coming soon!
Portland Photos Are Here!
Those People Were Nuts
I’ll have pictures from our Portland trip online soon. Until then, enjoy some election-related humor.
It’s Marathon Time (again)
After successfully completing marathons in Milwaukee, Seattle, Houston, and Lake Geneva, I’ll be running in the Portland Marathon this Sunday (October 1). The race starts at 7:00 a.m. Pacific time. You can check out Ben’s Running Log during the race to see how I’m doing. If all goes well, I’ll cross the line in less than four hours and set a new personal record.
Welcome!
I’ve sent out notices to a lot of people about my e-mail address change, and in the notice, I also included this web site’s address. So, if you’re here for the first time, welcome! I try to update the site at least once every two weeks. Feel free to click on any of the buttons on the top navigaton bar or the right-hand column, and have a look around!
Deck Photos! Yay!
The wait is over.
HERE are photos of the deck construction, along with two shots of another project we did last weekend. Enjoy!
