Day 3 race day

Well... sometimes you have to make a decision! We made what we thought was the safest and smartest decision. Live to run another day! There will be lots of other races!

gust in excess of 60MPH reported.

The winds died down later in the day so we did get out.
Capital building

 Museum of Natural Histoty


Holocaust Museum (any other pics did not seem appropriate)


 
Had a great dinner at the Heavy Seas Alehouse on Wilson Blvd. Worth going if you are in the area.
