Avon Walk For Breast Cancer

We had a great time yesterday, thanks to Connie, who lives on the Avon Walk route, which winds its way 26.2 miles around the streets of Long Beach on Saturday, and another 13 miles on Sunday, and so we set up a table in front of her house, resplendent with water and chocolates and 'sports beans' (perhaps the greatest marketing coup in recent years. Jelly beans as a fitness aid?), and we gave the great gals who were walking some much needed support, and there were a few guys too, but what was great was that the gals had a great sense of humor about a grievous problem, wearing shirts labeled with monikers like "Save Second Base" (it took me a while to figure that one out), "Walkers for Knockers", and "The Rack Pack". We had a blast.

I did feel a little guilty kicking back and drinking a Heineken while handing out cups of water, but what can I say?

You can still contribute to a good cause. You don't need any handy web link. You can figure it out. Just do it.
