Polar Bear 5K

Got up this morning and headed to Pine Bluff to run a 5K for Special Olympics. My friend who talked me into running my first half marathon, was putting on this race. My highly reliable weather channel app said it would be partly cloudy and 45 at race time. Well the app isn't so reliable. It was cloudy, damp, and freezing! Of course once I was a mile in I warmed up nicely. For some reason I ran faster than my usual pace and finished in 32 minutes. I am proud to say that I won second place in my age group!

They all stayed and did the Polar Bear Plunge. I'm not that crazy! Anyways I had I get back and meet my dad at my land. More on that later...

This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
