Another Fun Weekend!

Since our last post we took 1 rainy weekend off to relax and clean house and prepare for the next several snowboarding weekends!  This past weekend we started off with the Run for the Music 5K!  This was a local K-Falls race to raise money for the music department at Klamath Union High School.  The high schoolers actually ran WITH their instruments!  (Although they didn't play them...)  It was quite fun watching 3 band students running while pushing a "mock" piano down the road! (not the real piano thank goodness!)  We didn't get any photos since we were busy running (along with all our friends who ran it with us!) BUT I pulled this from the local running group's blog:

We ran with Mike, Laura and Mariah: Mike impressed us all with his time around 28 minutes! Laura came in behind him at 30 minutes, Ed made a new PR with 31 minutes and Kristin and Mariah did better than they expected at 38 minutes.  Not bad for very little running this winter!

After running our hearts out, we headed up to the WONDERFUL City of Bend on Saturday to enjoy some of the City that hadn't seen yet.  We checked out a local winery (Maragas Winery) who had a Pinot Noir that we loved!  They also had some fantastic Tapas food for gourmet snacking!  Next we let Alee play her heart out at one of the local dog parks before heading to our hotel with some great local pizza and a new bottle of that fantastic Pinot Noir. 

Sunday we dropped Alee off at Strutt Your Mutt for some back country hiking and headed to Mt Bachelor again!  Ed and I really got down our turns and switching from front edge to back edge.  With this under our belts we're ready for Tahoe next weekend!
