On Sunday I ran Pints to Pasta with my friend Ryan. It's a fun 10K along the waterfront in downtown Portland. The race finishes at the Spaghetti Factory with free pasta, beer and music. It's my third official road race and I have found yet another excuse to not go back to work.

Back at the Shack we're finally in the last week of the great remodel project of 2007. The kitchen & laundry rooms are almost complete. We're only waiting for a replacement cabinet in the laundry room, painting, light fixtures and a few other minor things.
